I’ve got one more quick last minute gift idea. These pistachio cranberry cookies are so easy to make. It just requires an empty jar and a few ingredients. I also included this beautiful “Happy Holidays” free printable to download at the end of the post. However, the best part is that I also included printable instructions as a tag, so you can simply attach to the jar.
I think everyone will be happy to receive this as a gift. By adding whole wheat flour I made it more healthy. To make my cookies delicious I added lots of delicious cranberries and pistachios. I love baking with pistachios, they are so crunchy.
I will explain everything how the ingredients can be assembled in the jar. Therefore, I always reuse the jar, so if you have any on hand you can use it. Simply mix 1/2 cup whole wheat flour with 1/4 tsp. baking soda. Put on the bottom of the jar. Add 1/3 cup brown sugar, then 3/4 cup rolled oats and 1/4 cup quick oats. Then add 1/2 cup cranberries and 1/2 cup pistachios. I will also include the full recipe and instructions on the bottom of the post.
To bake these pistachio cranberry cookies only 3 ingredients will be needed: 1 egg, 4 Tbsp. Oil and 1 tsp. vanilla extract. Everything is clearly written on the tag attached to the jar (the ingredients needed and instructions for baking). Also, you will need a string, hole puncher to attach the tag and tape to adhere free printable”Happy Holidays” label.
