Ready to impress your valentine or kiddos?? My reduced sugar white chocolate cranberry oatmeal cookies will make everyone happy!

White Chocolate Cranberry Oatmeal Cookies

For these white chocolate cranberry oatmeal cookies, we’re going to use old fashioned oats. You’ll also see these types of oats called rolled oats at the grocery store. I find if you’re looking for the perfect oatmeal cookie, old-fashioned oats are the way to go. And, if you need to follow a gluten-free diet, make sure to use gluten-free old-fashioned oats.

For the cranberries, we’ll use dried cranberries. Many brands offer a reduced sugar dried cranberry option now as well, so look for those if you can!

And, we’re using my favorite zero-sugar sweetener, Truvia Sweet Complete Granulated All-Purpose Sweetener. I love that I can count on it to bake and brown just like sugar in recipes. It’s a blend of stevia leaf extract, chicory root fiber, and erythritol.

You can sub it in cup-for-cup for sugar in all your favorite recipes. No complicated conversions needed!

How to make cranberry oatmeal cookies

First, preheat your oven to 375 degrees. Then, we’ll mix all of our dry ingredients in a medium sized bowl and set it aside. Next, we do the same thing with our wet ingredients in a separate bowl. 

Now, add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and stir with a spatula just until combined. And then, we mix in our dried cranberries and white chocolate chips. 

I recommend refrigerating the dough for 30 minutes before baking. This will give you slightly fluffier cookies, rather than flat and crispy. 

This recipe should yield 20-24 cookies. You can store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 5-7 days or freeze for up to 3 months.

    Made these yesterday and they’re amazing! The perfect combo of sweet and chewy with a really nice texture. The cinnamon was the perfect touch.

  2. I am new to your blog but I already love it! So many great informations .
    Is there any sub for the almond flour in this recipe? My husband is allergic.
    Thank you ?

  3. I was very concerned as I put the batter in the fridge; it seemed so runny! But finished cookie was puffy, and shockingly delicious. I am neither gluten intolerant nor diabetic, but I now care for a sibling that is, and he is always asking for cookies…happy I can actually bake him treats he can have, guilt-free. Thank you so much, keep posting!
