Sometimes I just love a good cookie that is jam packed with stuff.. and these trail mix cookies are all that and then some! 🙂 They make for a great filling snack or even a quick grab and go breakfast. Cookies are 2 smart points each, if your counting points plus, two cookies is 3pp and considering they are full of raisins, cranberry, nuts and chocolate chips that’s okay in my books! 🙂

What kind of oatmeal is best for the recipe instant or steel cut?
Hi Alice, I use Quaker baking oats which is similar to quick oats 🙂
Thanks….never seen them before but I will check the baking section at the grocery store.
I am in Canada, they are located with the cereals and quick oats packs 🙂
I made these for the 2nd time today. They are truly a good snack and I like that they are low in fat and sugar. You’ve created a lovely treat. I used walnuts in place of almonds because they’re my fav. I held out just enough cookies for the week ahead and froze the rest. No need to have the temptation around. Thank you for another wonderful recipe. <3
These are really tasty. My husband likes them too. Nice to enjoy a different kind of healthy snack.
Awesome! Happy to hear you both enjoy them and I think better and more filling than say a store bought granola bar!
I just made these tonight! SO good! I love how they’re so low in fat too. I used dried cherries, dried cranberries and chocolate chips in mine. Amazing.
Hi Angela, so glad you enjoyed them 🙂
Do you use a tablespoon or teaspoon to make the cookies?
Tablespoon 🙂
