Soft oatmeal cookies with cranberries topcook.tomathouse.com
Ingredients:
- 1 and 3/4 cups premium flour
- 1 teaspoon apple pie spice mix
- 3/4 tsp baking powder
- 0.5 tsp of soda
- 0.5 tsp salt
- 220 g unsalted butter at room temperature
- 3/4 cup light brown sugar
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tbsp vanilla extract
- 2.5 cups oatmeal
- 1 and 1/4 cups dried cranberries
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 tbsp. milk
Preparation:
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, apple pie spice, baking powder, baking soda, and salt; set aside. In a large bowl, beat the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar with a mixer on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Reduce mixer speed to low; beat in the eggs one at a time, then add the vanilla extract. Fold in the flour mixture and mix until smooth. Using a wooden spoon, fold in the oats and cranberries. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until firm, at least 1 hour or overnight.
- Position oven racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven and preheat to 350°F (175°C). Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Form the dough into 2-inch (5 cm) balls and place them 2 inches (5 cm) apart on the prepared baking sheets; press with a spatula to flatten.
- Bake, rotating the baking sheets halfway through, until the cookies are golden brown but still soft in the center, 15 to 20 minutes. Slide the cookies off the parchment and onto a wire rack and let cool completely.
Prepare the glaze:
In a bowl, combine powdered sugar and milk. Drizzle the glaze over the cookies; let set for 5 minutes.
