Ingredients
- 1/4 cup non-hydrogenated margarine
- 1/4 cup fat-free Greek yogurt
- 3/4 cup maple sugar
- 3 tablespoons maple syrup (preferably dark syrup for its robust flavour)
- 2 eggs
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
- 1 1/2 cup all-purpose unbleached flour
- 1/2 cup powdered milk
- 1 3/4 cup rolled oats
- 1 teaspoon bicarbonate of soda
- 1 1/2 cup dried cranberries
Method
- Preheat the oven to 180 °C (350 °F).
- Using a mixer, beat the margarine and Greek yogurt together in a bowl with the maple sugar and maple syrup until the mixture turns pale and slightly frothy.
- Add the eggs one by one, then the vanilla and continue mixing until smooth. In another bowl, combine the flour, powdered milk, oats and bicarbonate of soda.
- Add the dry ingredients into the sugar mixture and mix until a smooth paste forms.
- Add the cranberries and mix in using a wooden spoon.
- Shape into balls of about 60 ml (1/4 cup) and place on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper. You may need to bake in two batches depending on quantity. Flatten the balls with your fingers.
- Bake in the oven for 10 to 12 or until the cookies turn a light golden colour. The cookies will finish cooking out of the oven.
- Allow to cool completely.
