These blueberry granola cookies are everything a cookie should be. They are thick and soft with crispy edges and a chewy center. The cookies are LOADED with all the good things you could ever find in the best granola. I’m talking the best blueberry coconut granola.
I wish I could send these cookies to YOU right now. Words and pictures could never tell you how good these cookies taste. Take my word for it. You really have to make these cookies. You NEED these cookies in your life. No regrets.
These cookies are making a repeat on the blog with updated photos.
The title of the cookies is a mouthful. Blueberry, pecan, coconut, white chocolate, oatmeal cookies is really too much to say and hard to remember. So I am calling them Blueberry Granola Cookies. Simple and memorable. And it really describes what these cookies are all about.
They have all the fixings that are in a granola recipe and they taste like the most amazing granola cookie you can ever find. The granola-to-cookie ratio is HEAVY on the granola. As a matter of fact, there are so many granola add-ins that the cookie batter gets so thick you really have to ‘work it’ to stir it well.
Tips for amazing blueberry granola cookies.
It’s hard to mess up these cookies. I mean really, how can so many good things go wrong? It just can’t, but I have some tips that are going to help you make these cookies go straight to amazing.
1. Use bread flour.
You can use all-purpose flour but if you use bread flour instead of all-purpose flour you will get more chew factor. Bread flour has more gluten and the higher ratio of gluten equals a chewier cookie.
2. Butter.
You can use salted butter or unsalted butter. Either one will work just fine. I still add the additional salt when I use salted butter. There really isn’t enough salt in most brands of butter to make a difference in this recipe.
3. Toast the pecans.
Nuts taste so much better when you toast them first. It really does make a HUGE difference to toast the pecans and it only takes 7 to 10 minutes tops. An extra ten minutes for the most amazing blueberry granola cookie you will ever have in your life! It’s worth it!
4. Dried blueberries.
Make sure to use dried blueberries and not fresh blueberries. If you use fresh blueberries then the cookies will have too much moisture. The dried blueberries also have more concentrated sugar in them than fresh blueberries. It gives the cookies a big wow factor.
These cookies are begging to be made repeatedly and eaten immediately.
Blueberry Granola Cookies are Perfect for a Hiking Trip.
These blueberry granola cookies are packed with so many good things that they make the perfect hiking cookie. They are better than taking a bag of loose granola on a hike because they are easier to hold and eat. Make sure you make enough for your next hiking trip.

Ingredients
- 3 cups bread flour, 420 grams
- 1¼ teaspoons baking soda
- 1½ teaspoons baking powder
- 1½ teaspoons salt
- 1¼ cups unsalted butter, softened, 284 grams
- 1¼ cups brown sugar, 284 grams
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1½ cups old-fashioned rolled oats, 150 grams
- 2 cups white chocolate chips, 310 grams
- 1½ cups pecans, toasted and coarsely chopped, 150 grams
- 2 cups dried blueberries, 345 grams
- 1½ cups sweetened coconut flakes, 140 grams
Instructions
- Pre-heat oven to 350° and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or spray with non-stick cooking spray.
- Sift flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt into a bowl. Set aside.
- Using a mixer fitted with paddle attachment, cream butter and sugars together until very light, about 5 minutes. Add eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla. Reduce speed to low, add flour mixture and old fashioned oats, mix until just combined. Stir in white chocolate chips, pecans, blueberries and coconut.
- Using an ice-cream scooper, scoop 9 mounds of dough (the size of a scant ¼ cup) onto a baking sheet. Using the bottom of a glass, press the mound down slightly as these cookies do not spread very much. Bake for 14 to 16 minutes. Transfer cookies to a wire rack to cool. Repeat with remaining dough.
Notes
- You can keep the dough in the refrigerator or freezer (already formed in mounds) for baking another day (sometimes I will bake just 1 or 2 cookies when a sweet tooth strikes me).

These cookies are filled with so many good things!
Thanks Maureen, it’s a great combination
Now that’s a cookie! It’s so full of delicious ingredients — I love that whole kitchen sink thing. It looks thick, hearty, and satisfying, so one MIGHT do the trick. 🙂
Oh Marcie, they are definitely satisfying but honestly it is hard to stop at just one they are amazing!
I like titles that tell me what I’m eating. 😉 These really do look nice — but coconut is a real weakness of mine, so I know these have my number. Thanks.
Well John every time I have made these people go nuts over them and can’t stop eating them
Oh my goodness! I love the combination of flavors in these cookies. And the texture looks amazing!
Thanks Christin, these really are ‘out of bounds’ you must make them 🙂
