Granola Cookies

I had a play date recently that requested the mom's bring a 'snack'.  I, naturally, brought cookies.  I had a bag of Open Nature Chocolate Hazelnut granola in the pantry that really didn't mesh well with 'dieting'.  So I figured I'd make it into cookies and give them away!

Somehow I forgot to take pictures during the process but they are pretty simple.  Make cookie batter, add granola.  Done. The original recipe is here: Granola Cookies  It's from About.com which is an underrated website in my opinion, much like Instructables.

These are actually the batch of slightly overcooked cookies that I sent to work with Hubster.  They are really tasty but a 'heaping teaspoonful' of batter make a cookie that is close to 56 calories.  Not exactly a 'keep on hand for snacking' item.  Lots of good stuff in granola though!  Kidster loved them of course and they were a hit at the play group!


A little overbaked but delicious!

What is YOUR favorite use for granola?
