Granola Cookies
When my niece wanted me to bake some healthy cookies for her mom i.e., my sister, I decided to use the muesli that I had at home and try something with that. It’s absolutely crunchy and perfect. With very little fat and added sugar, this is surely power packed with healthy ingredients 🙂 Please do try and share your feedback with me. I added Bournvita because I had some stock of it. You can very well skip it. There is no added baking powder or baking soda in it.
Ingredients:
- Whole wheat flour 65 gm(1/2 cup)
- Muesli/Granola 125 gm
- Cornflour 1 tbsp
- Salt a pinch
- Dark chocolate 50-60 gm
- Brown sugar 2 tbsp
- Butter 56 gm (1/4 cup)
- Vanilla extract 1/2 tsp
- Bournvita 2-3 tbsp
- Milk 1-2 tbsp (if required)
Method:
- Mix the four, cornflour and salt in a mixing bowl.
- Cream butter and sugar till the sugar is fully dissolved. Add the vanilla extract and mix well.
- Add the flour mixture, muesli, bournvita and the dark chocolate pieces into the butter and sugar and mix well.
- Add milk if the mixture is too dry and mix everything. Do not knead hard.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and keep it ready.
- Preheat the oven at 150-160 degree Celsius for atleast 10 minutes.
- Shape the cookies and bake for 12-15 minutes or till it looks done.
- Remove the tray from the oven and allow the cookies to remain in the tray for 3-4 minutes.
- Remove them from the tray and place them on a wire rack and allow them to cool well.
- Once cooled store in airtight containers.
- Enjoy these healthy cookies with a glass of milk 🙂
