Excellent recipe. The cookies are yummy, if a bit too sweet for my taste. I may just cut the brown sugar next time. Definitely a keeper though!! 
Pecan Cranberry Oatmeal Cookies

Description
These cookies make a wonderful holiday gift. Make a batch for your friends and/or co-workers. Who doesn’t like cookies??!!
Ingredients
- 4 Tablespoons Earth Balance Non-hydrogenated Butter Substitute
- ¼ cups Honey Or Agave
- ¼ cups Brown Sugar, Packed
- ½ teaspoons Pure Vanilla Extract
- ½ cups White Whole Wheat Flour
- ¾ cups Rolled Oats
- ½ teaspoons Baking Soda
- ¼ teaspoons Salt
- ¼ cups Pecans
- ¼ cups Dried Cranberries
- ¼ cups Chocolate Chips (optional)
Preparation
Preheat your oven to 350˚.
In a bowl (I use a stand mixer), beat together the Earth Balance, honey or agave (see tip below), sugar and vanilla. In another bowl, whisk together the flour, oats, baking soda, and salt.
Stir the flour mixture into the butter mixture.
Add the chocolate chips, if you’re using them, as well as most of the cranberries and pecans. Reserve some of the cranberries and pecans for the the tops of the cookies.
Roll the dough into golf-ball-sized balls and flatten slightly. Decorate with remaining pecans and cranberries.
Bake for 11 minutes. The longer you bake them, the harder/crisper they will be, so time them.
Tip: if you spray your measuring cup with a little oil before you measure the honey/agave, it will slide right out.

These cookies are fab! The recipe was really easy to do and they came out great. Mmm. I am eating one as I type this. The only change I made was using dark brown muscovado sugar instead of normal brown sugar, and I added a little baking powder because I only had a couple grains of baking soda left. I love how awesome these cookies taste with no dairy products! These are great for vegans.
