Ingredients
1/2
cup packed brown sugar
3
tablespoons granulated sugar
1/3
cup canola oil
1
egg or 1/4 cup fat-free egg product
2
teaspoons vanilla
1
cup white whole wheat flour
3/4
cup uncooked 5-grain rolled hot cereal
1/2
teaspoon baking soda
1/4
teaspoon salt
1/2
cup dried cherries
1/3
cup bittersweet chocolate chips
Preparation
Heat oven to 375°F. In medium bowl, mix sugars, oil, egg and vanilla. Stir in flour, cereal, baking soda and salt until blended (dough will be slightly soft). Stir in cherries and chocolate chips.
On cookie sheets, drop dough by rounded tablespoonfuls 2 inches apart. Bake 7 to 8 minutes or until light golden brown around edges (centers will look slightly underdone). Cool 1 minute; remove from cookie sheets to cooling racks. Cool completely. Store in tightly covered container.
