Ingredients
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup chopped pistachios
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder

- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
- 1 cup fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
How to Make Pistachio Oat Cookies with Whipped Cream and Strawberries
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add in the vanilla extract and mix until combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the rolled oats, all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. Fold in the chopped pistachios.
- Using a cookie scoop or spoon, drop dollops of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden. Remove from the oven and let cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
- While the cookies cool, prepare the whipped cream. In a medium bowl, beat the heavy cream and powdered sugar together until soft peaks form.
- Once the cookies are cooled, top each one with a generous dollop of whipped cream and a few slices of fresh strawberries. Sprinkle additional chopped pistachios on top for garnish.
Tips for the Best Results
- Make sure your butter is at room temperature for easier mixing.
- Don’t overmix the dough once you add the dry ingredients to keep the cookies tender.
- Allow cookies to cool completely before adding whipped cream to prevent it from melting.
Easy Variations
- Swap pistachios for walnuts or almonds for a different nutty flavor.
- Add a teaspoon of almond extract for an extra layer of flavor.
- Substitute half the all-purpose flour with whole wheat flour for a healthier twist.
What to Serve With It
- A scoop of vanilla ice cream for a decadent dessert.
- A cup of fragrant herbal tea for a comforting pairing.
- Fresh fruit salad for a light and refreshing side.
