Orange Craisins Oatmeal Cookies
What You Need:
3 cups Rolled Oats
1 1/2 cups Whole Wheat Flour
1 cup Packed Brown Sugar
1/3 cup Granulated Sugar
2 tbsp Honey
1 tsp Cinnamon
2 Sticks Butter
2 Eggs
1/2 tsp Salt
1 cup Craisins
1/2 cup Flax Seeds
1 tsp Orange Extract
1 tbsp Orange Zest
Slowly add the flour and oats1/2 cup at a time. The mixture will be thick but do not fear, this is the perfect blend!
If using a hand mixture or mixing by hand, just add the oats and flour 1/2 cup at a time, and mix well, scraping down the sides and folding it all together.
Once combined, the last step is to fold in the craisins and flax seeds. These give the cookies a serious edge that will leave those around you completely envious, because you have found a way to hide whole wheat flour and flax seeds in soft delicious bite sized cookies.... yum.
Place about 1 tbsp of dough per cookie 4 inches apart on a greased baking sheet, and bake 12-15 minutes. Remove from oven an cool. These are moist, soft, and full of fresh orange flavor. Absolutely the BEST cookies for a sunny day!
Thanks for Baking with me!
To. Die. For!
