How to Make Glazed Oatmeal Craisin Cookies

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1 1/2 cups rolled oats.
  3. In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, 1 cup packed light brown sugar, and 1/2 cup granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  4. Beat in 2 large eggs and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until well combined.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Stir in 1 cup dried cranberries.
  6. Roll dough into 1-inch balls.
  7. Place balls 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.
  8. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until edges are lightly golden brown.
  9. Let cookies cool on baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
  10. While cookies cool, prepare the glaze: In a small bowl, whisk together 2 cups powdered sugar, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, and 1 teaspoon orange zest until smooth. Add more lemon juice, 1 teaspoon at a time, if needed to reach desired consistency.
  11. Once cookies are completely cool, drizzle glaze over the top.
