Ingredients
  

  • 125 g all-purpose flour
  • 75 g rolled oats
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp baking soda
  • ½ tsp cinnamon
  • ¼ tsp nutmeg
  • 100 g brown sugar
  • 60 ml vegetable oil
  • 1 large egg
  • 150 g grated carrot (about 1 medium carrot)
  • 50 g dried cranberries
  • 125 g fresh mixed berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries)
  • A dusting of powdered sugar optional
  • Chopped nuts (e.g., walnuts or pecans) optional

Equipment

  • Heatproof mixing bowl
  • Baking sheet
  • Baking tray lined with parchment paper
  • Electric mixer or whisk
  • Cheese grater

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, rolled oats, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Whisk until blended.
  3. In a separate bowl, mix the brown sugar, vegetable oil, and egg until smooth.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring to combine. Fold in the grated carrot and dried cranberries until evenly distributed.
  5. Using a spoon or an ice cream scoop, drop spoonfuls of the dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 5 cm apart.
  6. Gently press the fresh mixed berries into the tops of the cookie dough before baking.
  7. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and the centers look slightly soft. They will firm up as they cool.
  8. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 10 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely before serving.

Notes

Feel free to substitute the dried cranberries with raisins or any other dried fruit you prefer.
If you’re looking to make these cookies even more indulgent, consider adding a sprinkle of chocolate chips or a dash of vanilla extract to the dough!
These cookies store well in an airtight container for up to a week, and they can be reheated in the microwave for a few seconds for that just-baked softness.
Enjoy your baking adventure!
