These Chocolate Chip Cranberry Oat Cookies are soft, packed with so many fall flavors, and easy to make! This delicious dessert is the perfect healthier cookie option for the holidays!
These cookies are a fun spin on Country Crock’s Make it Yours™ Cookie Recipe which is the perfect cookie dough base!
I will admit that this summer I spent as little time in the kitchen as possible. We were so busy doing summery things that baking took a back seat for the first time for me in almost 7 years. I really needed a few months to spend focused on my kiddos and not necessarily the next recipe for my website. And let me tell you, we had a LOT of fun!
HOWEVER, my baking sheet was never too far away.
And I found myself drawn to easy recipes that were adaptable and required as little thought as possible…which brings me to today!
A few months ago I teamed up with my friends over at Country Crock to create a custom cookie using their Make it Yours™ Cookie Recipe, which is great on it’s
own, but is the perfect base recipe to get creative! The possibilities are endless.
Country Crock is a buttery spread that tastes fresh and is made from ingredients you can actually pronounce, which makes me very happy!
And I decided that using their Make It Yours™ Cookie Recipe was the perfect cookie to get me back in the kitchen. With the cooler temperatures right around the corner I knew that I wanted to make a “cozy” cookie.
I chose some mix-ins that really made me think of fall: Dried Cranberries, Oats, Walnuts and cinnamon!
The cookie recipe really comes together quickly, which is a MUST in my house this time of year now that school is back in session!
Use a cookie scoop to drop the dough onto your baking sheet, which will make all of your cookies the same size and shape!
They bake up like a dream!
And the cranberries, nuts and cinnamon pair perfectly with the semisweet chocolate chips!
I would love to hear some of your favorite cookie flavor combinations! You guys are my greatest inspiration!
These are a great lunchbox treat or mid-day sweet snack!

Why can you only store up to 3 days? Can’t you make them up a week ahead of time?
I am sure they will still be ok to eat, but I recommend they be eaten within the first 3 days for freshness.
Why can you only store for 3 days? So you can’t make these up like a week before?
I don’t eat Country Crock either. I eat the real thing, butter.
Love a good cranberry cookie!! They look like the perfect texture! Want!!
These look yummy!!!! Is the Brown Sugar “packed” as in the “original” recipe?
yep!
Oatmeal cookies are my favorite, and these look seriously PERFECT! Love how puffy Country Crock makes these cookies. I have to try them!!
Yes, the Country Crock definitely gives cookies a more cake-like texture!
Hi, I have every single thing to make this delicious looking cookies. However, I only have butter. Could I substitute the butter for country crock? And if so, would they come out the same? Thanks!
Yes, you can, but I would reduce the flour to 2 1/3 cups
Could you keep the flour the same and reduce the butter to 3/4 cup?
