Blueberry Pecan Oatmeal Cookies Recipe

These irresistible Blueberry Pecan Oatmeal Cookies are a delightful twist on a classic! I adapted this recipe from a favorite online source, perfecting it for maximum flavor and texture. The secret? Letting the dough rest to thicken for optimal chewiness. These cookies get even BETTER the next day, making them perfect for baking ahead. Feel free to experiment with other dried fruits and nuts – the possibilities are endless! (Note: Fresh or frozen blueberries will burst, resulting in softer, potentially watery cookies best enjoyed immediately.)

How to Make Blueberry Pecan Oatmeal Cookies

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, ½ teaspoon salt, and ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon (or allspice).
  3. Stir in 1 ½ cups rolled oats, 1 cup chopped pecans, and 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together ½ cup vegetable oil, ½ cup maple syrup, 1 large egg, and 1 teaspoon lemon zest until light and fluffy.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Cover the bowl and let the dough rest at room temperature for 20-30 minutes to thicken.
  7. Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving some space between each cookie.
  8. Gently flatten each cookie with a fork.
  9. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are set.
  10. Remove from oven and let cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
