Ingredients

• 1 cup white sugar
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 3 eggs
• 1 teaspoon almond extract
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 1 teaspoon grated orange zest
• 0.5 cup chopped walnuts
• 0.5 cup canola oil
• 3.25 cups all-purpose flour
• 0.75 cup sweetened dried cranberries

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line 2 cookie sheets with parchment paper.

Step 2

Beat sugar, eggs, oil, extracts, and orange zest together in a large bowl.

Step 3

Combine flour and baking powder; stir into egg mixture to form a stiff dough. Stir in cranberries and walnuts. Divide dough into 2 pieces. Form each piece into a roll the length of your cookie sheet. Use the parchment paper to help flatten the roll to about 1/2-inch thickness.

Step 4

Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, 25 to 30 minutes. Remove from cookie sheet to cool onto a wire rack until safe to handle, 10 to 15 minutes.

Step 5

Slice rolls crosswise into 1/2-inch slices. Place slices back on the cookie sheet, cut-side up, and continue baking until lightly toasted, 5 to 7 minutes per side.
