Hello there! It’s been awhile since I shared a healthy cookie recipe. Today, I am sharing these Cranberry and Almond Oatmeal Cookies that are great for breakfast or a snack. These cookies are soft, chewy, crunch, and so good. This oatmeal cookie recipe is super easy to make and you can even make them ahead of time.
Two years ago I made some Pumpkin Breakfast Cookies that were a big hit with my family. These Cranberry and Almond Oatmeal Cookies are similar but have a completely different taste. This cookie recipe is dairy free and if gluten free if you use gluten free oats. Just because these cookies are healthier doesn’t mean they lack taste. I love the sweetness from the dried cranberries and crunch from almonds.
