How to Make Chocolate Chip Cookies With Oatmeal Flax Cranberries And Nuts

  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, 1 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg.
  3. In a separate bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter and ¾ cup granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Add ¾ cup packed brown sugar and beat until well combined.
  4. Beat in 2 large eggs one at a time, then stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract and 2 tablespoons milk.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  6. Stir in 1 cup rolled oats, ½ cup chopped walnuts or pecans, 1 cup chocolate chips, ½ cup dried cranberries, and 2 tablespoons ground flaxseed.
  7. Drop by rounded tablespoons onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.
  8. Bake for 12-14 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers are still slightly soft. They won't brown significantly, but that's part of their unique charm!
  9. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
