These scrummy cookies are nice and easy to make, I hardly had chance to take any photo’s of these before they disappeared! You can vary the end result by leaving some as a ball of dough as some people like a softer cookie rather then a crunch. With cranberries and cinnamon it must be nearly Christmas.

110g soft butter
100g caster sugar
50g demerara sugar
1 egg, lightly beaten
1 ½ tsp ground cinnamon
150g self raising flour
30g oats
75g dried cranberries
Makes 20-24 cookies
Preheat the oven 180°C 160°C Fan GM4
Grease or line a few baking trays.
Beat the soft butter and the sugars until light and fluffy. Add in the egg and beat well. Sieve in the cinnamon and flour, add the oats and cranberries and bring everything together until just mixed.
Place balls of dough weighing about 25g on the prepared baking trays, for thinner crisper cookies flatten with your palm. For a denser, more cakey texture leave as a mound. Allow room for spreading.
Bake until golden, about 10 minutes. Allow to cool for 5 minutes on the baking tray and then when firmed slightly move to a cooling rack.
Store in an airtight container. Enjoy with a cuppa ♥
