This recipe is to make one jar as a gift. We make up our jar gifts one at a time. It seems to provide a more consistent cookie as compared to our making a larger batch and trying to measure out for each jar.
1 quart canning jar, band and lid |
1 cup all-purpose flour |
1/2 teaspoon baking soda |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/2 cup rolled oats, uncooked |
1/3 cup granulated sugar |
1/3 cup brown sugar, packed |
1 cup dried cranberries |
1/2 cup white chocolate baking chips (any chocolate chip will be awesome) |
1/2 cup nuts (walnuts, pecans your choice) chopped |
Dry Recipe in Jar
In a large bowl whisk together the flour, baking soda and salt
Gently spoon in the flour mixture into the canning jar and tap down well
Create a layer with the Rolled Oats and tap down well
Continue to add layers with the granulated sugar, brown sugar, dried cranberries, white chocolate baking chips, and chopped nuts – tapping down after each layer (if not you will NOT get everything in the jar!)
Seal the jar with lid and ring
Attach a gift tag with the baking instructions
