Equipment

Mixing Bowl
Hand held mixer
Medium cookie scoop
2 cookie sheets
Silicone baking mat

Ingredients

2 cups (250g) all purpose flour
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon baking soda
¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
¼ cup (55g) unsalted butter softened to room temperature
⅓ cup (65g) granulated sugar
⅓ cup (65g) light brown sugar
2 large eggs at room temperature
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
2 cups (180g) rolled or quick oats
½ cup roughly chopped toasted pecans
½ cup dried cranberries I used craisins Ocean spray brand
½ cup white chocolate chips

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F/180°C, and line 2 half sheet size cookie sheets with parchment paper or silicone mats and set aside.
In a bowl, combine dry ingredients (salt, baking powder, flour, and cinnamon), and set aside.
In a large bowl, using hand held mixer beat the butter with the sugars until well combined (1 minute). Then beat in the eggs and vanilla extract.
Add dry ingredients along with the oats, and on very low speed mix until just combined.
Add pecans, cranberries and chocolate chips. Mix them in until combined.
Using a medium cookie scoop (2 tbsp), scoop out cookie balls and place on cookie sheet. With your hand, or bottom of a glass, flatten the cookies a little as they won’t spread much as they bake. For better looking cookies add more cranberries or chocolate chips to the top of each cookie dough ball.
Bake for 10 minutes. Remove from the oven, allow to cool on the cookie sheet for 10 minutes then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes
