Ingredients
1 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 cup brown sugar, packed
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
3 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
1 cup dried cranberries
1 cup white chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, cream together softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy (about 2-3 minutes).
- Beat in the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon. Gradually add to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
- Fold in the oats, dried cranberries, and white chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
- Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough onto prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are set.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Add Nuts: For extra crunch, add chopped walnuts or pecans.
Other Dried Fruits: Try dried cherries or blueberries instead of cranberries.
Dark Chocolate: Swap white chocolate chips for dark chocolate for a richer flavor.
Spices: Add a pinch of nutmeg or cloves for a spicy twist.
