I purchased a new granola this weekend. I was so delicious that I thought it would make good cookies. So I pulled a recipe and modified it to make it a little healthier:
Preheat oven to 375 Degrees
Ingredients:
1 cup of Bear Naked Triple Berry Granola
1 cup of rolled Oats (Not Instant)
1/2 cup of butter softened
1 egg
1/2 cup of brown sugar
6 splenda packets
1 tsp of vanilla
1 cup of flour
1/2 tsp of baking soda
1/4 tsp of kosher salt
1/4 cup of Ghiradelli Bittersweet Chocolate Chips
Combine sugars and butter, whip until creamy add egg. Combine flour salt and baking soda in separate bowl. Mix Flour and egg mixture together. Just until incorporated. Add in granola and Oats. I mix with my hands or a spatula. Add chocolate chips.
I scooped 1 tablespoon sized cookies to regulate size and to have nutrition facts. I got a total of 28 1 tablespoon sized cookies. Bake for 12 minutes.
Nutrition Facts per cookie:
85 Calories
1.6 g of fat
.75 g of fiber
1.6 g of protein
I tested these cookies with my 3 kids and my mom. They all loved them. They didn't taste healthy. I would make these again but next time I'm trying banana nut granola and mashed banana's instead of the butter!!
