Peanut Butter Granola Cookies. There are two reasons I usually run from peanut butter cookies like the plague. First, they are always so dry. Why can't moist, chewy peanut butter cookies be the norm, not these dried out, bland pieces of food? I used a summer berry granola and it was the perfect compliment to the peanut butter but I think a vanilla almond or cinnamon walnut would be incredible too! Granola Cookies with dark chocolate and peanut butter are healthy option for anytime of the day- breakfast, snack, but very satisfying dessert, too!
These granola cookies are mixture of ground rolled oats and peanuts, sweetened with brown sugar.
Line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone liners.
If using granola with dried fruit, remove the fruit from one portion and add it to the other portion.
