Ingredients
- 1 ¼ cups (150 grams) all-purpose flour

- ½ cup unsalted butter softened
- ½ cup brown sugar packed
- ¼ cup white sugar
- 1 egg

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

- Add the egg and vanilla and mix well.
- Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until just combined.
- Stir in the oatmeal, apples and cranberries (if using) until combined.
- Scoop the dough onto the prepared cookie sheet using a large cookie scoop or about 3 tablespoons of dough per cookie. Space the cookies at least 2 inches apart.
- Bake for about 12-13 minutes until lightly golden brown.
- Allow to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes and then cool completely on a wire rack.
