Healthy Granola Cookies!

It batter actually started out as Vegan Oatmeal Raisin Cookies and then I decided to make a compost-like cookie inspired by Momofuku's Compost Cookie which contains pretzels and potato chips and a lot of other crazy ingredients you would have ever thought would taste good in a cookie, but does! Anyway, my version was more of a healthy version that contained lots of fiber and protein. Some of the ingredients were rolled oats, raisins, chocolate chips, chex cereal, almond milk, raw almonds, pine nuts, chunky peanut butter, flax meal, brown sugar, cinnamon, and I actually used Smart Balance in place of butter so they would be low fat as well.

Overall, the finished product was quite tasty and my housemate named it "The Breakfast Cookie" because it was almost like a soft and chewy granola bar, but in cookie form.
