Muesli Cookies – A meal in a cookie!
If you don’t have time to make breakfast; two of these cookies and a strong cup of coffee will set you up!
First make your own favourite breakfast muesli.
Muesli
My muesli is different every time. Today I toasted oats, pumpkin seeds, flax seeds sunflower seeds, poppy seeds, quinoa, raisins and dried blueberries. Everything except the fruit goes into a large baking pan with a dash of oil.
Bake on low until toasted. At the end of the baking period I add the dried fruit and a swirl of honey. Then toss together. Bake 4 more minutes.
Cool.
Breakfast cookies.
Cream together: 2 sticks of soft butter with 1 cup of brown sugar.
Then add 2 room temperature eggs and 2 tsp of vanilla.
Blend in: 3 cups of muesli and 1 and 1/2 cups of AP flour. ( I used Janie’s Mill organic Red Fife) plus an extra 1/2 cup of raisins.
Scoop even sized balls of dough and roll with wet hands. Flatten with wet fork.
Bake at 375 for 15- 20 minutes. Until slightly brown around the edges.
Cool on rack.
Have a lovely day! I know this is a short post today but I really wanted to remind you about these cookies. We used to make them by the hundred when the woofers and farm cadets were here. Do you remember?
The hey days! Hay Days!
Good simple food.
Take care!!

11/2 cups of AP flour = 5 1/2 cups?
Hi JohnBrian – 3 cups muesli, 1/2 cup raisins and 1 and a 1/2 cups of flour.
I will look back and check that I wrote that correctly.
Thank you!
Can you see all the pictures! I might have to load those again. WordPress is slow today!
I never eat brekfast, but I could make an exception for these!
…and the pictures are all loading 😉
The one with the jar?
Yep!
Oh, I do remember those days with the young farm helpers coming and going. Seems like ages ago, which probably means I’m the one who’s surely aging!
Me too!!
Me too Deb! It was such fun following the antics of Celi and the Woofers! An incredible learning experience on the Farmy for the Woofers, big help for Celi and such fun for the Fellowship following along in spirit! 🙂
I look back in those days with such nostalgia.
These look seriously nourishing. I remember the WWOOFers too. They must have eaten magnificently.
Great idea Cecilia! It reminds me I need to make a new batch of granola!
I love freshly toasted granola/muesli!
These cookies would make a lovely gift.
If you ever have the urge to replace the honey with golden syrup it’s seriously good.
I love golden syrup. Though really hard to find in the USA
