How to Make Apricot Cornmeal And Sage Cookies

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease two baking sheets.
  2. In a medium bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, ¾ cup granulated sugar, and 1 large egg until light and fluffy.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour and 1 teaspoon baking soda.
  4. Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients. Stir in 1 cup chopped dried apricots, 1 tablespoon chopped fresh sage, ½ cup cornmeal, and ½ teaspoon salt until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Drop rounded tablespoons of dough about 1 inch apart onto prepared baking sheets.
  6. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown. Rotate baking sheets halfway through for even baking.
  7. Let cookies cool on baking sheets for 2 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
