Bigfatmommas Healthy Granola Cookies


This is a better version of a granola cookie recipe. It uses sucanat (an unrefined sweetener--you can find it at wegmans or at health food stores) and hemp plus granola, which is a lighter granola with puffs in it, and flaxseed. (don't worry, it's safe to eat, even for children). These cook up light and airy, and taste heavenly. Note: they're a little less healthy if you eat the whole batch...*burp*

Steps


Preheat oven to 350.
Beat butter and sucanat together until light and fluffy.
Beat in peanut butter.
Beat in egg and molasses.
Sift flour , salt baking powder and cinnamon into butter mixture , and stir until well blended.
Stir in granola cereal and raisins.
Drop by rounded tablespoonsful onto greased cookie sheet , 1 inch apart.
Flatten slightly with spoon.
Bake for 12 minutes , or until lightly browned.
Carefully remove to cooling rack--they will be soft and fragile but will harden once cooled.
