Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, whole wheat flour, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and salt. Stir well to combine.
3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the honey, melted coconut oil, egg, and vanilla extract until smooth.
4. Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined; be careful not to overmix.
5. Gently fold in the dried cranberries and chopped walnuts until evenly distributed.
6. Using a spoon or cookie scoop, drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
7. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are set.
8. Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
