Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter
- 0.5 cup Brown sugar, packed
- 0.25 cup Granulated sugar
- 1 large Egg
- 1 teaspoon Pure vanilla extract
- 0.75 cup All-purpose flour
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 1 cup Quick-cooking oats
- 0.75 cup Grape-Nuts cereal
- 0.5 cup Dried cranberries
- 1 tablespoon Milk
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the unsalted butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes using a hand or stand mixer.
Add the egg and vanilla extract, and beat until well combined.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, ground cinnamon, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
Stir in the quick-cooking oats, Grape-Nuts cereal, and dried cranberries using a spatula or wooden spoon.
If the dough seems dry, add the milk and mix until the dough holds together.
Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of the dough and place them onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Using the palm of your hand or the back of a spoon, gently flatten each cookie slightly to ensure even baking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are set.
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
