60 minSkip the sugar bowl entirely with these naturally sweetened cookies that taste like a granola bar met a muffin top.
Make your own granola mix or use store-bought, adding whatever combo of oats, nuts, and dried fruit you love.
They bake up firm enough to pack in lunchboxes without crumbling.
Kitchen Tips
- Use unsweetened granola so apple juice concentrate provides all the sweetness
- Watch closely after 7 minutes; they brown quickly on the bottom
- Add the granola at the very end to keep texture intact
- Double the batch and freeze half for quick breakfast grab-and-go options
Ingredients
Directions
Beat together eggs, oil, applesauce, and apple juice concentrate. Add flour, baking powder, and spices; beat well. Mix in granola.
Drop batter by teaspoons onto lightly oiled baking sheets. Bake at 350℉ (180℃) for 7 to 10 minutes or until firm to the touch and browned on the bottom. Cool on wire racks.
*To make granola, combine equal amounts of any of the following: rolled oats, chopped nuts, flaked coconut, finely chopped dried fruit, sunflower seeds.
