Valmistus
- Preheat the oven to 350F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, oats, baking soda, and salt. In a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream the butter and sugars on medium speed until fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well between additions, then mix in the vanilla and almond extracts.
- Set the mixer speed to low and gradually add the flour. Fold in the dried fruit and almonds and mix briefly until combined.
- Drop rounded tablespoons of cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing the cookies about 2 inches apart. Bake until the edges are brown and the tops are set, about 12 minutes. Transfer the cookies to cooling racks and cool completely. Repeat with the remaining dough.
