How to Make Oatmeal Cherry Cookies Martha Stewart

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
  3. In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, 1 cup granulated sugar, and 1/4 cup honey using an electric mixer 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 on low speed until just incorporated. Be careful not to overmix.
  6. Gently stir in 2 cups rolled oats and 1 1/2 cups chopped cherries by hand.
  7. Drop rounded tablespoons of cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.
  8. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are still slightly soft. Watch closely during the last 2 minutes to prevent burning.
  9. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
