LOCATION

Directions

  • 1 Let cookie dough stand at room temperature 10 minutes to soften.
  • 2 Meanwhile, heat oven to 325°F. Line 2 large cookie sheets with sides with nonstick foil or cooking parchment paper. In large bowl, mix cookie dough and cinnamon. Add oats, almonds, pecans, coconut, raisins and cranberries; knead into dough until well blended. Crumble mixture evenly on cookie sheets.
  • 3 Bake both cookie sheets at the same time 17 to 22 minutes, stirring every 5 minutes and rotating cookie sheets halfway through baking, until light golden brown. Cool completely on cookie sheets, about 30 minutes.
  • 4 Break granola into smaller pieces if necessary. In large bowl, mix granola, chocolate chips and peanut butter chips. Store in large resealable food-storage plastic bag, or store in 1/2-cup amounts in small food-storage bags for ready-to-go snacks. Store up to 3 days.

Great recipe expecially for peanut lovers. I also added extra chips. Unfortunately I broke it up to much while stirring but it was still excellent just in smaller pieces. An excellent compliment to ice cream, fruit salad, and cottage cheese. A definate "do over"!

My whole family loved this recipe. Especially my husband!! I couldn't find the roll of peanut butter cookie dough, so I used the one that comes in a big square and is already pre-cut & has chunks of peanuts and peanut chips in it. It was sooooooo good!! Next time I will add more cranberries to it. You can't go wrong with any addition or substitution you make to this recipe. I will keep this recipe in my recipe folder forever!

I loved this recipe!! It was so easy and the granola was delicious. I added in a little extra peanut butter and chocolate chips, but kept the rest of the recipe the same. It came out great! I would certainly make this again!
