Step 1
Start by heating your oven to 375 degrees F and line two baking sheets with parchment paper to keep the cookies from sticking. In a bowl, combine the almonds, cranberries, peanuts, and candy pieces to make your trail mix. In a larger bowl, mix together the oats, flour, brown sugar, baking soda, and salt. Then, add the butter, honey, egg, and vanilla extract, stirring everything together with a wooden spoon or electric mixer until the dough comes together nicely. Gently fold in the trail mix so it’s evenly distributed. Scoop out tablespoon-sized dollops of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them apart. Pop the trays into the oven and bake until the edges look set and the bottoms turn golden brown—this should take about 8 minutes. Let the cookies cool on wire racks before digging in.
