Ingredients

  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • 1 cup whole wheat flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 cup fresh blueberries

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine the rolled oats, whole wheat flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and brown sugar until smooth. Add the honey, vanilla extract, and egg. Mix well.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Gently fold in the fresh blueberries.
  5. Drop spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Press down lightly on each cookie to flatten slightly.
  6. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until the edges are golden brown. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  7. Enjoy these delicious Blueberry Oatmeal Cookies as a snack or dessert. Store any leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
