Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Begin by roughly chopping your pecans for a crunchy texture. Measure out dried cranberries and rolled oats.
  2. In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine sugar, unsalted butter, and heavy cream. Stir continuously until melted.
  3. Once the praline mixture reaches a light caramel color, remove it from heat. Stir in vanilla extract and a pinch of salt.
  4. Fold in the chopped pecans and dried cranberries until well coated.
  5. Gently fold in the rolled oats until every oat is coated.
  6. Use a tablespoon to drop portions onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about an inch apart.
  7. Allow the cookies to cool at room temperature for 30-40 minutes, or refrigerate for 15-20 minutes.
