I bought a box of Fiber One Cereal a few months ago. We totally can’t bring ourselves to eat it. So I have been wanting to find a recipe that I could use them in, so that they won’t go to waste. The back of the cereal box features Hungry Girl’s Grab and Go Breakfast Cookie. Some of her stuff looks really great…but I do not like them because she uses artificial sweeteners. That being said, I took her recipe and turned it into my own. Oh and mine has 20 calories less 🙂
Mix and set aside:
3/4 cup whole wheat flour
1/2 cup all purpose flour
1 tsp. cinnamon
1/2 tsp. nutmeg
1/4 tsp. salt
Mix:
2 tbls. unsalted butter
1/4 cup canola oil
1/4 cup dark brown sugar
3 tbls. honey
Mix into sugar and oil mixture:
1 egg
1/4 cup pumpkin
1 tsp. vanilla
Now mix the flour mixture that was set aside into the batter.
Then mix in:
1/2 cup old-fashioned oats
1/2 cup Fiber One Cereal
1/3 cup dried cranberries
2 squares Ghirardelli 60% Cacao Bittersweet Baking Bar coarse chopped
Use a large cookie scoop or roll into a ball. Place on cookie sheet and pat out flat.
Bake at 350 for 12 minutes
