Categories     Cookies

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 c. unsalted butter (room temperature)
1/3 c. granulated sugar
1/3 c. brown sugar
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1 large egg
1 1/2 c. old fashioned oats
1 c. all-purpose flour
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/4 tsp. salt
1 1/4 c. trail mix (reserve 2 tbsp. to press on top, if desired)

Steps:

  • Line one or two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats, set aside.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer or in a large mixing bowl with a hand mixer, cream the butter and sugars together until pale, about 2 minutes.
  • Add the vanilla, then the egg, mix until combined.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the oats, flour, baking soda, and salt.
  • Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until a few streaks of flour remain. Using a spatula, fold in the trail mix by hand until evenly distributed.
  • Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  • Using a standard size cookie scoop (#40 or 1.5 tablespoons), place balls of cold dough onto the prepared baking sheets. Press reserved trail mix on top, if desired.
  • Place in the oven and bake for 10-13 minutes, then remove and let cool on sheets for 3 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days.

Categories     Dessert     Snack

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 10

¾ cups old fashioned rolled oats
¾ cups all purpose flour
¾ teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon kosher salt (see note)
½ cup unsalted butter (softened but still cool)
⅓ cup light brown sugar, packed (make sure it's fresh and soft)
2 tablespoons honey
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 ½ cups roughly chopped trail mix (divided (see note))

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
  • In a medium-sized bowl, combine oats, flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
  • With a hand mixer or stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat butter, brown sugar and honey for 1-2 minutes, until smooth and creamy. Add egg and vanilla and beat to combine.
  • Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and beat until combined. Stir in 1¼ cup of trail mix.
  • Scoop the dough into 2-tablespoon balls and place a couple inches apart on the baking sheets (the dough will be sticky). If the dough is too sticky you can chill it in the refrigerator for 30 minutes. Use the remaining ¼ cup trail mix to press some pieces onto the top of each dough ball (this makes the trail mix more visible and makes for a prettier cookie). For thinner cookies (pictured) lightly press down on the dough balls to flatten just slightly. Or leave the dough balls in a mound for thicker cookies.
  • Bake for 8-10 minutes, until the edges of the cookies are golden brown and the very center is still slightly underdone. Do not over bake, as they will finish cooking on the baking sheet. Place the baking sheets on wire racks and allow the cookies to cool completely.

Time 1h15m

Yield 60 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 cup butter or 1 cup margarine
1 cup sugar
1 1/4 cups firmly packed dark brown sugar
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 2/3 cups flour
1 cup very finely chopped nuts (I use brazil nuts)
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
3 cups old fashioned oats
2 cups trail mix

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°.
  • In a large mixing bowl cream together butter, sugars, eggs, and vanilla until almost fluffy.
  • In another bowl stir together flour, very finely chopped (should almost resemble powder) nuts, cinnamon, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
  • Slowly add your powdered ingredients to your creamed ingredients while mixing.
  • Mix well.
  • Now stir in the oats and trail mix.
  • Drop by scoop or teaspoon onto hot stone or slightly greased cookie sheet.
  • Bake for 11-14 minutes depending on cookie size.
  • Remove cookies from baking sheet or stone right away and transfer to cooling racks.

Tips:

  • Use old-fashioned oats. They will provide a chewier texture than quick oats.
  • Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the cookies tough.
  • Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will help the cookies hold their shape.
  • Bake the cookies until they are just set. Overbaking will make them dry and crumbly.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before storing them. This will help them keep their shape and texture.

Conclusion:

These oatmeal trail mix cookies are the perfect breakfast to go. They are packed with oats, nuts, and seeds, which will give you energy and keep you feeling full. They are also delicious and easy to make. So next time you are looking for a quick and healthy breakfast, give these cookies a try!
