Servings 38 -40 cokies

Ingredients
  

  • 2-1/2 cups whole flake oatmeal
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • ½ tsp cinnamon
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 cup canola oil
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 cup dark chocolate chips
  • ½ cup dried fruit, raisins, cranberries or chopped tart cherries

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350ºF. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer, mix all ingredients (except chocolate and fruit) until well combined. Stir in chocolate and dried fruit of your choice.
  • The mixture will be very crumbly and loose, DON’T WORRY.
  • Using your hands, clump together a tablespoon of the mixture, squeezing it tightly, and placing on the baking sheet to form a mound. Press all the chocolate and fruit into the mound. I know, it will seem too crumbly, but trust me they come together in baking.
  • Bake 12-14 minutes until set and golden. Repeat with remainder of mixture. Cool completely on a wire rack. (But I love them just warm out of the oven... enjoy!)
