Description
Soft and chewy blueberry oatmeal cookies made with hearty rolled oats, sweet blueberries, and warm cinnamon for a cozy, fruity treat perfect for snacks or sharing.
Ingredients
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
¾ cup brown sugar (light or dark)
¼ cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp baking soda
½ tsp cinnamon (optional)
½ tsp salt
3 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
1 to 1½ cups blueberries (fresh, frozen, or dried)
Optional: ½ cup chopped nuts (walnuts or pecans) or white chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, beat the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy, about 2–3 minutes.
- Beat in the eggs one at a time, then mix in the vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring just until combined. Fold in the oats.
- Gently fold in the blueberries, being careful not to overmix.
- Scoop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each cookie.
- Bake for 10–13 minutes, until edges are golden and centers are just set.
- Cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
Frozen blueberries can be used without thawing to prevent excess color bleeding.
For a lighter version, replace half the butter with mashed banana or unsweetened applesauce.
Chill the dough for 20–30 minutes if cookies spread too much.
Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days.
Freeze for up to 3 months and thaw before reheating.
Warm in the microwave for 10–15 seconds to refresh texture.
