In the on-going attempt to break out of the bagel-cereal-bagel breakfast rut, I whipped up these breakfast cookies the other day. With chunks of apple, cheddar cheese and oats, they were just the right combination of sweet and savory. My kids liked them, but then again I'm not sure they've ever met a cookie they didn't like!
Breakfast Cookies:
3/4 cup flour
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
2/3 cup butter or margarine, softened
1/3 cup brown sugar
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 medium apple
1 1/2 cups quick cooking oats
1 cup grated cheddar cheese
3/4 cup raisins
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Mix flour, cinnamon and baking powder. Cut in butter in chunks, brown sugar, egg and vanilla. Peel and core the apple, chop it into small pieces or shred it. Add apple pieces, oatmeal, cheese and raisins. Stir. Place large spoonfuls on an ungreased cookie sheet. Bake at 375 for 15 minutes. Store in a covered container in the refrigerator. Makes about 24 cookies.
