Everyone loved an oatmeal cookie and this variety is no exception! First, pre-heat oven to 350 degrees and line a sheet pan with parchment. The parchment is not required but I love how easy it makes the cleanup.
In a large bowl, beat together the softened butter and sugars with a hand or stand mixer. Then add in the eggs and vanilla extract and beat well. Then the flour, oats, baking soda and baking powder.
Last but definitely not least! Stir in the dried cranberries using a large spoon. Now, using a cookie scoop or a tablespoon, measure heaping tablespoons and place on cookie sheet. I was able to fit about a dozen per cookie sheet.
Bake for about 10 – 12 minutes, not letting the bottoms burn but letting them brown. Make sure the centers are baked. Transfer to wire rack to cool and repeat with remaining cookie dough.
Hope you enjoy!!
