On cold winter days, there's just something about a house that is filled with the smell of baking cookies that immediately warms you up. And there is something so hearty about an oatmeal cookie. With almonds. And craisins. And coconut. So as we look forward to spring and the warm weather that the season promises, we'll leave you with this delicious cookie recipe.
1 Cup Unsalted butter at room temperature
1 Cup Brown sugar
1 Cup Granulated sugar
3 Large eggs
2 teaspoon Pure vanilla extract
1 1/2 Cups Flour
1 teaspoon Baking powder
1 teaspoon Cinnamon
1 teaspoon Salt
3 Cups Rolled oats
1 1/2 Cups Craisins
1 Cup Sweetened shredded coconut
1 1/2 Cups Coarsely chopped almonds
Preheat oven at 350 degrees. Beat butter and sugars together until light and fluffy on medium speed. Gradually add one egg at a time and vanilla. Sift together flour, cinnamon, salt, and baking powder in separate bowl. Gradually add dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, keeping your mixer on. Add oatmeal, craisins, coconut, and almonds. Mix until just combined. Drop cookies onto parchment lined baking sheets. Bake for 15 minutes, until lightly browned.
Would love 3 or 4 of those right now! Not a fan of coconut...but I love everything else. :-)
