- Yields:
-
3 dozen
ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1⁄2 teaspoon table salt
- 1⁄2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
- 3 tablespoons milk
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup unsalted butter, room temperature
- 1 cup light-brown sugar, packed
- 1⁄2 cup granulated sugar
- 3 cups old fashioned oats
- 1 cup dried cranberries
directions
- In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, salt, cinnamon, baking powder, and baking soda. Set aside.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the vanilla, milk, and eggs. Set aside.
- In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, combine the butter with both sugars, and beat on medium speed until light and fluffy. Reduce speed to low, gradually add milk mixture, and beat well. Add the flour mixture, and beat until just combined. Remove bowl from the electric mixer, and stir in the oats and cranberries. Place dough in the refrigerator until firm, at least 2 hours or overnight.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Line several baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside. Shape 2 tablespoons of dough into a ball; place on one of the prepared sheets. Repeat with the remaining dough, placing 3 inches apart. Press with the bottom of a glass to flatten dough into 2-inch diameter rounds.
- Bake until golden but still soft in center, 16 to 18 minutes, rotating halfway through. Remove from oven; transfer with parchment to a wire rack to cool. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week.

I've been married to my wonderful husband, Ricky, for almost three years, and spending time with him is my favorite thing to do. He is the consummate outdoorsman. I am definitely not a hunter but I absolutely love to go offshore fishing ? the bigger the better ? tuna, mahi, wahoo?maybe this year I?ll get my first Blue Marlin! Living on the Atlantic Ocean and near the Eastern Shore of Virginia, I am tasked in the spring and summer to create fun meals with all kinds of fresh fish and in the fall and winter with making comforting foods with venison, dove and duck.

<br>I have really only been cooking since I met my husband (which was a mere five years ago), but have always been captivated by people who could cook. I?ve worked in restaurants since I was 15 years old so I learned most of what I know from watching chefs in the kitchen. I read a lot of cookbooks and watch a lot of Food Network. And of course I spend a lot of time here.

<br>I am always looking to try something new. I generally follow a recipe to the letter the first time and then if it doesn?t satisfy our tummies I tweak it a bit.
