Chewy Cranberry Oatmeal Cookies with Walnuts

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line sheet trays with parchment paper and set aside.

Step 2

In a large bowl, stir together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and nutmeg until combined.

Step 3

In the body of a stand mixer with the paddle attachment or in a large bowl with an electric hand mixer, whip the butter with the brown sugar and granulated sugar for 2 minutes until well combined.

Step 4

Add the eggs one at a time, letting the first one mix in fully before adding the mix. Stir in the vanilla.

Step 5

Add the flour mixer and mix until just combined; scrape down the sides.

Step 6

Add the oats and mix until combined.

Step 7

Add the cranberries and walnuts and mix until well combined, but try not to overmix.

Step 8

Using a 1.5-tablespoon cookie scoop, add scoops of the cookie dough onto the prepared sheet trays about 2 inches apart.

Step 9

Bake for 11-13 minutes until the cookies are lightly golden brown along the edges and the tops appear dry.

Step 10

Allow the cookies to cool for 10 minutes on the sheet tray before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
