I love cranberry and orange together, but have never seen it in a cookie recipe. I had to post this for safe keeping! (The prep time includes 30 minute chilling time)

Time 1h15m

Yield 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 1/2 cups whole wheat pastry flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup chopped walnuts
1/2 cup chopped dried cranberries
1 cup & 3 tablespoons sugar, divided
1/2 cup smooth unsweetened applesauce
1/4 cup canola oil
1 tablespoon freshly grated orange zest
3 tablespoons orange juice

Steps:

  • Whisk flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a large bowl. Stir in walnuts and dried cranberries.
  • Whisk 1 cup sugar, applesauce, oil, orange zest and juice in a medium bowl until smooth. Make a well in the dry ingredients and pour in the wet ingredients. Mix until well blended. Cover with plastic wrap and chill for 30 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 350°F Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a nonstick baking mat.
  • Put the remaining 3 tablespoons sugar into a small flat-bottomed dish or pan. Roll the dough with floured hands (it will be very moist) into 1 1/2-inch balls, then roll in sugar to coat. Place 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheet.
  • Bake the cookies until barely golden brown, 12 to 15 minutes. Cool on the pan for 1 minute; transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

These cookies are a bit too sweet for my taste, but they're still very good. I would recommend using less sugar next time.

I'm not a big fan of cranberries, but I really enjoyed these cookies. The orange and nut flavors really balance out the tartness of the cranberries.
