Granola is nutritious and good for you, but can be hard to start eating as part of a consistent diet. So, I’ve decided to kick up the flavor by adding my JUSTIN’S® Cinnamon Almond Butter—turning plain old ‘groan’-ola into tasty almond butter granola cookies!
¼ cup JUSTIN’S® Cinnamon Almond Butter
¼ cup Butter, softened
½ cup Brown Sugar
¼ cup Sugar
1 Egg
½ teaspoon Vanilla Extract
¼ teaspoon Almond Extract
¼ teaspoon Salt
½ teaspoon Baking Powder
1 cup All-Purpose Flour
1 ½ cups Granola
1. Preheat the oven to 350°F.
2. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
3. In a large bowl with an electric mixer, beat together the JUSTIN’S® Cinnamon Almond Butter, butter and sugars.
4. Add the egg and beat well.
5. Stir in the vanilla and almond extracts.
6. Add the flour, baking powder, and salt, and mix until just combined.
7. Stir in the granola.
8. Using a small scoop or tablespoon, scoop the cookie dough onto prepared baking sheets.
9. Bake at 350°F for 8-10 minutes. Cool completely.
Sometimes baking can be a real hassle. Leave it in too long and your dessert is too dry, take it out too early and you have a goopy mess.

I love to throw parties for friends and family. Sometimes they get a little crazy and we have to tell Grandma to stop dancing on the table. But, when she gets a hold of these almond coco-nutty buddies, it’s really hard to get her to stop. With JUSTIN’S® Classic Almond Butter packed into every bite, it’s hard to blame her. Get down from there, Grandma. You’re going to break something.
The two best parts of Thanksgiving are a great meal and getting all your loved ones together. The next best part is Thanksgiving leftovers. I’m surely thankful for this Turkey, Kale and Brussels Salad with Almond Butter Tahini.
Oh grilllllll, you’ve done it again. Fire up this fruity and decadent dessert to make any summer soiree a little more nutty.
