Super Cookies

Super Cookies (Adapted from King Arthur Flour)

1/3 cup canola oil
1 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
3/4 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 large egg
2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
1 cup shredded carrots
1/2 cup dried cranberries
1/2 cup bittersweet chocolate chips
1/2 cup slivered almonds, toasted
1 cup white whole-wheat flour (can use all-purpose if desired)
1 1/2 cups quick rolled oats

Preheat oven to 350

In a large mixing bowl, beat together oil, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger, cloves, salt, vanilla and egg until smooth. Beat in maple syrup.

Stir in the carrots, cranberries, chips and nuts. Add the flour and mix until completely combined. Add the oats and mix just until thoroughly distributed.

Using a tablespoon cookie scoop, drop the dough onto parchment lined baking sheets. Bake until the cookies are just barely set on top, about 12 minutes. Remove and allow them to cool on the baking sheet before moving to a wire rack.

Makes about 30 cookies.
