Instructions
preheat oven to 350 degrees

- Combine flour, baking powder, and baking soda together in separate bowl, then gradually add dry ingredients to butter mixture, until combined.
- Add in granola, oats, rice cereal, nuts and raisins. This will get thick, and hard to stir, make sure you take the time to incorporate add ins well. Feel free to add more nuts or dried fruits. Or to change the flavors to your liking. (dried cherries, blueberries, apples, walnuts, almonds…the skies the limit)
- Drop large spoonfuls, approximately 1/4 cup for giant cookies, and 2 tablespoons for smaller cookies, onto parchment lined baking sheets. Bake in a 350 degree oven for 15 minutes. When edges are browned and the middle doesn’t appear doughy at all, remove from oven and let cool on cookie sheet, before removing.
- Makes 14 large cookies.
