Introduction

I took the recipe for cookies off of the Bob's red mill package and adapted it just a little. I formed them into bars instead of cookies for a quick healthy breakfast.

Number of Servings: 10

Ingredients

    -6 tbsp margarine (I used smart balance light)
    -3/4 cup brown sugar/sweetener (I used Ideal sweetner)
    -1 egg
    -1 tsp vanilla extract
    -1 cup whole wheat flour (plus about 2 tbsp)
    -1/2 tsp baking soda
    -1 cup Bob's Red Mill Cinnamon Raisin Granola
    -4 tbsp flax seeds (Optional. You can also add fruit, or other nuts)

Tips

You may use splenda brown sugar instead of ideal. That's just what I had on hand. In addition, the recipe recommended half whole wheat and half white flour. I opted for whole wheat.


Directions

Bake at 300 degrees for about 15 min or until golden brown

Combine margarine, brown sugar, egg, and vanilla and mix well. Combine the flour and baking soda and mix well. Then combine the two together. Stir in the remaining ingredients. Coat a baking sheet with non-stick spray. Drop dough into cookie or bar shapes.
