A great alternative to Oatmeal Raisin cookies with some health benefits.
Servings: 40 cookies
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter, at toom temperature
- 1 cup light brown sugar, firmly packed
- 1/2 cup granulated white sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tsp. pure vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp. baking soda
- 1 tsp. cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp. sea salt
- 3 cups uncooked rolled oats
- 1 1/3 cups dried blueberries
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 325°.Cream together butter and both sugars, until fluffy.Add in eggs, one at a time then vanilla.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, cinnamon and salt.Gradually add flour mixture to butter mixture. Do not overwork.Fold in oats then blueberries.
- I use a small ice cream scoop, but you can use a teaspoon to drop cookies onto ungreased baking sheet. Do not flatten here.
- Bake for 15 - 19 minutes. Cookies should be golden brown on bottom.As soon as cookies come out of oven, give them a tap to flatten, if needed.Cool 5 minutes on pan then transfer to rack and cool completely.
- Cookies will store well in an airtight jar for up to a week.Dough can also be scooped and frozen for future use.
