Blueberry and Cardamom Oat Cookies
Description
This recipe begins by blending dry ingredients including flour, baking soda, ground cardamom, salt, and cinnamon to impart characteristic spice flavors. The creamed butter and sugars bring moisture and sweetness, while egg, molasses, and vanilla unite the ingredients and enrich flavor complexity. Rolled oats add chewiness, and fresh blueberries are gently folded in to distribute their juicy texture without crushing.
Baked at 350°F, the cookies spread moderately and brown nicely around the edges, developing a pleasant crispness while retaining moist centers. The cardamom provides a distinctive floral warmth complemented by cinnamon's familiar spice, creating an intriguing cookie profile. These treats suit snack times or teatime accompaniments.
Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- ¾ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon ground cardamom
- ½ teaspoon salt ground
- ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ½ cup butter unsalted, softened
- ¾ cup light brown sugar
- ¼ cup white sugar
- 1 large egg beaten
- 1 teaspoon molasses
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup rolled oats old fashioned
- 1 cup blueberries fresh
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350˚F.
- Place flour, baking soda, cardamom, salt, and cinnamon in a mixing bowl and whisk together. Set aside.
- Place butter and both sugars in another mixing bowl and cream together until light and fluffy.
- Add egg molasses and vanilla to the butter mixture and continue to mix together.
- Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix together until well combined. Stir in oat until well combined then gently fold in the blueberries.
- Place 3 tablespoons sized balls of cookie dough onto a parchment lined baking sheet, 2 inches apart (as these cookies spread quite a bit) and bake for 9 to 11 minutes or until browned.
- Remove cookies from the oven and allow cookies to cool, 7 to 10 minutes before serving.
