For a richer flavor, consider browning the butter before creaming it with the sugars. Toasting the oats lightly before adding them to the batter can enhance their nutty flavor. Feel free to experiment with different types of dried fruit, such as cherries or raisins, in place of the cranberries. Store leftover cookie bars in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.

Follow The Directions
01
Step
5 mins
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Generously grease a 9x13-inch baking pan to prevent sticking. (5 minutes)
02
Step
5 mins
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar using an electric mixer until light and fluffy. This incorporates air and creates a tender crumb. (5 minutes)
03
Step
2 mins
Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract until well combined. (2 minutes)
04
Step
5 mins
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can result in tough bars. (5 minutes)
05
Step
3 mins
Fold in the rolled oats, chopped cranberries, and white chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the batter. (3 minutes)
06
Step
2 mins
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread evenly. (2 minutes)
07
Step
28 mins
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-28 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean with just a few moist crumbs clinging to it. (28 minutes)
08
Step
30 mins
Remove the baking pan from the oven and let it cool completely in the pan for at least 30 minutes before cutting into bars. This allows the bars to set properly and prevents them from crumbling. (30 minutes)
09
StepOnce cooled, cut into squares and serve. Enjoy the delightful combination of flavors and textures!
