I love a new cookie, especially cookies they are not a derivative of chocolate chip. Oatmeal cookies have been a long time favorite for me, they are just so much more chewy and tender than other cookies. So today we have a new oatmeal cookie recipe for you, our Blueberry and Cardamom Oat Cookies. The blueberries kind of explode in the cookie in the oven making these cookies look like miniature paintings. The flavor of the blueberries paired with the cardamom is so good. These cookies also spread in the oven, which I like because it makes them a little thin, but they are still really chewy and moist. These are my new favorite summer cookies. Oh, and also, if you love blueberry cookies, you should check out our popular Blueberry Yogurt Cookies, they are super good too!

We love using a scoop to size out the cookie dough. This is a 3 tablespoon scoop and it makes all the cookies a perfectly consistent size!

I made these cookies today and they are absolutely delicious. I add 1 cup of chopped walnuts to them as I enjoy nuts in cookies but they’d be great either way. I’m trying different recipes and it’s been so fun. I’m anxious to have my family sample them as my one grandson isn’t fond of oatmeal cookies but I bet he’ll like this one. It’s a keeper for sure. What a wonderful way to make oatmeal cookies. The blueberry’s are so good in them. Thank you for your wonderful recipes.

I made these are they were so yummy!! only problem i had was they were really wet and gooey around the blueberries, some like soggy bread wet and kept falling apart. I also had to cook them way longer than the time listed. Next time i make them I will use freeze dried blueberries.

I’ve made these twice now and they are so delicious! Love that they (1)taste amazing, (2)make 12 big cookies and (3)seem to come together in no time at all. Triple threat treat for sure ;-)

Hi there,
I just made these, but it went a bit differently than you described. I made no substitutions and baked them in my Breville Smart Oven, which is very reliable. They didn’t really spread, so the second batch I pressed them down before baking. They also took longer than the 11 minutes to fully cook. It also made many more than 12 cookies, but that was a good thing. I tried to do 3T size but perhaps it was closer to 2 1/2 T. You’d think they would have taken less time if smaller…
Jenny Park
Hm, that’s strange. Others have made this without any issues so I’m not sure what the problem is?!
Nanda
Not sure either. My second batch in the oven spread more, but still definitely took longer than 11 minutes, and yours still look more done than mine.
However, they taste divine! I’m going to make them again soon and try to cut back on the sugar (they’re a bit sweeter than I prefer), and maybe a little bit on the butter. I’ll let you know how it goes!
Jenny Park
Great! Thanks for the feedback!
Annie
Wow, these look delicious – I’ll try them soon!
Janina
Oh wow! These turned out perfectly delicious and soft. You can’t eat just one!
Jenny Park
Yay! Glad you love them!

You had me at cardamom… One of my favorite flavors that is totally underutilized in the states!

These were yummy. Saw the picture while surfing the web and reading my emails. Couldn’t resist making these right then and there. I always love the pictures you post, they make everything look so tasty. These didn’t disappoint.

Those sound fantastic! I agree, interesting new cookie flavors are always good–especially if they use fresh fruit like this! Perfectly seasonal :)

Oh mama, cookies of my dreams! These are stunningly beautiful, and I can practically taste the cardamom and fresh berries against that buttery dough. YUM!
