Oatmeal Blueberry cookies with Lavender & White Chocolate

blueberry-lavendercookies

Friday! And that means, in my ideal posting routine, something sweet. I made these yummy cookies from a recipe over at Life, Lightly Salted (go there for the original recipe with US measurements) for my sister's birthday party and they were definitely a hit. The lavender is quite unexpected, but goes very well with the blueberries!

Oatmeal Blueberry cookies with Lavender & White Chocolate
about 40 cookies

175 ml brown sugar r
220 g butter, softened
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 tsp salt
2 eggs
750 ml oats
310 ml flour
90 g dried blueberries
1 tsp dried lavender buds, ground in a pestle and mortar
200 g white chocolate, coarsely chopped

Heat the oven to 175°C. Beat butter and sugar until fluffy, then add the baking soda, vanilla and salt. Stir in the eggs and make sure you have a smooth batter.

Add oats, flour, lavender, blueberries and white chocolate. Shape the dough into small balls, and place on a baking sheet - leave room between the cookies, they will spread some.

Bake for 10 minutes, or until lightly golden brown. Leave to cool on a rack.
