Cranberry Chocolate Chip Cookies
Cranberry chocolate chip cookies are easy to make, whole grain and naturally sweetened! Perfect for a new delicious holiday cookie!
Yield: 14 -15 large cookies
Ingredients
- 1 cup old-fashioned oats
- 1 cup whole wheat flour (see notes)
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup semisweet chocolate chips
- ⅓ cup dried cranberries
- ½ cup applesauce
- ⅓ cup honey
- 2 tablespoons butter, room temperature
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350. Line two baking trays with silpats or parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, combine the dry ingredients (oats through salt) and mix well. Stir in the chocolate chips and dried cranberries and mix again.
- In a separate bowl, combine the wet ingredients (applesauce through vanilla extract) and mix well.
- Stir the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir to combine. Be careful not to overmix.
- Drop large spoonfuls of the cookie dough onto the prepared baking trays.
- Bake at 350 for 12-15 minutes, until golden brown. Let cool for a couple of minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. (Or just carefully lift the silpat or parchment paper off the baking tray and let them cool on that on your counter.) Store in an airtight container for up to a week.

Notes
Flour: I use a white whole wheat flour but regular whole wheat flour or all-purpose flour -- or a mix -- would be fine here.
Chocolate chips: I use regular chocolate chips but I think these would be great with white chocolate chips as well.
