Core Ingredients- 75g Granola (Honey Almond Granola recommended)
- 75g All-purpose flour or Baking Mix
- 1 Fresh Egg
- 2.5ml Pure Vanilla Extract (approx. 1/2 tsp)
- 1/2 tsp Baking Powder
- 25g Melted Unsalted Butter
- 20g Plain Yogurt
- 20ml Milk or Soy Milk
- 40g Brown Sugar (adjust sweetness to your preference)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Tip: Using ‘Bobs Red Mill’ Honey Almond Granola will enhance the flavor, but any good quality granola will work well.
Step 2
Tip: Prepare about 20g of dark chocolate and chop it finely. This will melt into the cookies, adding a rich chocolatey taste.
Step 3
In a large bowl, combine all the measured ingredients: granola, flour or baking mix, egg, vanilla extract, baking powder, melted butter, yogurt, milk or soy milk, and brown sugar. Mix well until a cohesive dough forms. Since granola and chocolate chips are already sweet, consider adjusting the brown sugar amount based on your preference. Reduce it if you prefer less sweetness.
Step 4
Using a teaspoon or a small cookie scoop, drop portions of the dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Gently flatten each portion with the back of a fork to create a uniform cookie shape. This helps them bake evenly and achieve a crispy texture.
Step 5
Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) for about 15 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown. Baking time may vary slightly depending on your oven.
Step 6
Your delicious granola cookies are ready! Remove them from the oven and let them cool completely on a wire rack.
Step 7
These cookies offer a delightful balance of subtle sweetness and nutty, wholesome flavors, making them incredibly moreish.
Step 8
They boast a wonderfully crisp exterior with a soft, slightly chewy center, perfect for enjoying with a cup of tea or coffee.
Step 9
Store the cooled cookies in an airtight container at room temperature. For a warm treat, briefly microwave them before serving to enjoy that freshly baked texture.
Step 10
Package these cookies attractively as gifts for friends and family. They make a thoughtful and delicious present that is sure to be appreciated!
