CRANBERRY PECAN OAT COOKIES
This is a chewy cookie which I made up some years ago. It can be made with gluten free oats and gluten free flour, too. The amount is a guess because I didn't make these cookies for about two years and can't remember how many it yields, but I guess it is something around 30 cookies.

Tips:
- Use fresh cranberries. Fresh cranberries have a tart and juicy flavor that is perfect for these cookies. If you can't find fresh cranberries, you can use frozen cranberries, but be sure to thaw them before using.
- Chop the pecans finely. Finely chopped pecans will distribute evenly throughout the cookies and provide a nice crunch. If you don't have a food processor, you can chop the pecans by hand using a sharp knife.
- Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing the dough will make the cookies tough. Mix the dough just until the ingredients are combined.
- Chill the dough before baking. Chilling the dough will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much in the oven.
- Bake the cookies until they are golden brown. The cookies are done baking when they are golden brown around the edges and the tops are set. Be careful not to overbake the cookies, or they will be dry and crumbly.
Conclusion:
These cranberry pecan oat cookies are a delicious and festive treat that are perfect for the holiday season. They are easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With their chewy texture, tart and sweet flavor, and crunchy pecans, these cookies are sure to be a hit at your next holiday party.
