Monster Breakfast Cookies

10/13/2011

So many of us have picky eaters that would rather snack and graze all day long.  If you are worried about their snacks, this is a pretty healthy one.  Pair it with a glass of milk and a piece of fruit and it can easily fill in for a picky eaters breakfast (let’s be honest – maybe even lunch!) or a busy parent on the run!  As per usual, I had my kitchen helper ready to go (as well as sneaking as much raw cookie dough as she possibly could!)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

1/2 cup butter softened
1 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup canola oil
1/2 cup honey
1 tsp vanilla
3 cups rolled oats
2.5 cups flour (I used whole wheat)
1/2 cup ground flax seed (this can be usually be found in the cheese/yogurt/organic goods fridges)
1/4 cup sesame seeds
1/4 poppy seeds
1/4 cup flax seeds
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 – 1 cup raisins (I used 1/2 a cup of currents plus a few mini chocolate chips!)

Cream butter and brown sugar.  Beat in eggs.  Add in oil, honey, vanilla and then the remainder of the ingredients.

Make 1/4 cup balls out of the dough and place on a cookie sheet.  They don’t spread out very much, so I would pat them down a bit.  Bake at 375 for 20 minutes. Makes approximately 24 large cookies.  Freezes well!
