Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
  • 3/4 cup finely diced fresh strawberries, patted very dry
  • 1/2 cup white chocolate chips (optional)

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet. Cream the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar on medium speed 2 to 3 minutes until fluffy.
  2. Beat in the egg and vanilla until combined, scraping the bowl as needed.
  3. Whisk flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt together. Stir into the butter mixture just until no flour streaks remain.
  4. Fold in the oats, then gently fold in the strawberries and white chocolate chips.
  5. Drop rounded tablespoonfuls of dough onto the sheet, spacing 2 inches apart. Bake 10 to 12 minutes until edges are golden and tops are set. Cool on the sheet 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack.

Notes

Chill the dough 30 minutes for thicker cookies. The strawberries must be very dry; any excess moisture will make the cookies spread and turn soggy. Store with a slice of bread to retain softness.
