“These are delicious!I added 1/2 cup chopped walnuts, very good.”
“These are wonderful – perfect for a sweet snack or for breakfast!”
“Robb, these are FANTASTIC.I made them for a church bake sale and they went over HUGE.When I make them again, I might just add another egg or egg white to get a better consistency for my personal taste.The crunchy Grape Nuts are wonderful with the oats.Such an unusualcombo that lead to great texture.”
“Love this recipe! Always a hit when I take it somewhere for sharing 🙂 A soft and chewy cookie with the nice crunch of the grape nut cereal!>br/
“The first time I saw this on the back of the Grape Nut box I made it.My family loves it especially by Granddaughter;it is her favorite cookie she is a Mom now and she still asks me to make them for her.They are usually gone in two days”
“Not exaclty like I expected but pretty good.I used 2 sticks of butter and 1/2 cup applesauce as another review suggested.I also used the food processor to chop up the cranberries.I think it would be fun to add pecans or cocconut flakes.thanks for posting!”
“These were just what I was looking for! I made it even easier by doing it in a food processor. Added all wet and sugars together until creamy, then added flour mix and pulsed until mixed. Then the grape nuts and cranberries and ran on slow for ~30 sec.(helps to break up the craisins a bit). I transffered it to abowl and mixed in the oats. Took maybe 5 minutes to make!! Love all the great textures and how soft and chewy they are. Thanks again!”
“we weren”t crazy about this recipe.The cookies taste okay, but the texture of the grape-nuts was what we didn’t like.It is like having eggshells or nut shells in your cookies.The grape-nuts stay very hard and it isn’t pleasant to bite into them.”
“My husband will not eat anythign but choc. chip cookies so I traded the cranberries for mini chips.He Loved them!! Said they were award winning!”
“I’ve made these before and just made them again.These cookies have a fantastic texture as they are soft, chewy, and crunchy all at the same time. I threw in half a bag of white chocolate chips this time, it really improved the cookie.Plus the red and white really look nice if you are making these for Christmas. I love that this recipe makes tons of cookies; I even made my pretty big and I still got 50 cookies!”
“This is a huge hit!I changed it around a bit.I used 2 sticks of butter (not 3 and not margarine), 1/2 cup of applesauce (to make up for the butter), 1 cup of dried cherries, 1/2 cup finely chopped pecansa AND 1/2 cup white chocolate chips.FABULOUS!The grapenuts make the whole cookie heartier than a plain oatmeal.You will love these!”
“Loved these cookies!We eat them for breakfast on the go, and they are delicious.The only thing I changed was I added 1 1/2 cups of dried cranberries/dried apples and they were even more delicious!”
“Absolutely the BEST oatmeal cranberry cookies I have ever had.A WONDERFUL recipe. Thanks!”
“These cookies are wonderful.I bring cookies to work all the time and got numerous compliments on these.The Grape Nuts really set them apart – heart, not too sweet, and you can taste all ingredients.I highly recommend trying these.”
“Quite tasty cookies.I love the cruch of the Grape Nuts as well.Pop one in the microwave to just warm up a bit and it is great with ice cold milk.Thanks for a great recipe ReeLani.”
“These are the best oatmeal cookies ever.I added some chocolate chips and baked them 1 minute longer.The base is almost toffee tasting and could almost fool you into thinking there were toffee bits mixed in because of the grape nuts.Well done!!”
“Yum! To echo previous reviews, these are truly excellent. DH and I agree that this one is a keeper. I did, however, change them quite a bit. In fact, I think I may post my version because it is a little bit more health-conscious (not that these are bad to begin with!). Thanks for the great recipe!”
“These cookies are SO GOOD! I just love the crunchy texture from the grape nuts. The cranberries add a chewy tartness that goes really well with the sweet cookie! I did add a handful of grated coconut to mine because I had some in the pantry calling my name! It’s a keeper!*Wanted to add that I froze these to take on a camping trip. After defrosting, these cookies were just as fabulous as fresh out of the oven. The grapenuts cereal kept it’s crunch!”
“Great cookies. Very easy to make. i used a medium cookie scoop and they baked up in 9 minutes. Love the crunch from the grape nuts, very filling cookie. Next time I will add a bit more dried cranberries (1/2 cup more) Thanks for sharing this recipe.”
“I figured we’d like these but was surprised just how much we LOVED them! We used them as breakfast cookies. A great change from the usual muffins and granola bars. They are good anytime of day though. I got 46 cookies. Thanks so much for sharing this fantastic recipe!”
