Homemade Trail Mix Cookies Recipes
Description
DO NOT bake on an airbake cookie sheet. The cookies will not turn out right. Use a regular cookie sheet for these cookies.
Ingredients
• 1 1/4 c old fashioned rolled oats
• 3/4 c flour
• 1/2 tsp baking powder
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 1/2 tsp cinnamon
• 1/2 c butter, softened (1 stick)
• 1/4 c honey
• 1 egg
• 1/2 c light brown sugar
• 1 tsp vanilla
• 1/4 c cranberries
• 1/4 c mini chocolate chips
• 1/4 c sliced almonds
• 1/4 c pumpkin seeds
• 1/4 c raisins
Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 350.
2. In a medium bowl, add the butter, brown sugar, and honey. With your mixer, beat on medium speed for about 2-3 minutes or until creamy.
3. Add egg and vanilla. Continue to beat until combined.
4. In a separate bowl, add the oats, flour, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon. Mix together, then add to the wet ingredients and mix until well combined. You can use a spoon or your mixer to mix.
5. Once mixed, add some of the cranberries, chocolate chips, almonds, pumpkin seeds, and raisins. Save a little of each ingredient to place on top of the cookie. Mix with a spoon until combined.
6. With a 3-inch cookie scoop (or spoon), scoop 8 cookies and place on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper. Press down to flatten just a little bit. Don’t flatten too much. Press in a few more pieces of the trail mix ingredients that you saved back. This step is optional. It just makes for a prettier cookie.
7. Bake for 8-10 minutes or until the edges are golden brown and the middle is still slightly soft. Take out, and leave them on the cookie sheet to cool. This will finish the baking process, and you’ll have a perfect chewy cookie.
