Oatmeal Raisin Cookie Granola @spabettie

Last week I had a granola craving.

I also had a cookie craving, which is rare. I am not so much a cookie fan. Even more, it was a specific cookie craving – I wanted an Oatmeal Raisin Cookie.

So, I made a batch of granola, and rolled some of it into cookie balls.

Most of it was made into granola, though – and this recipe could not be easier.

Another rarity – I was able to reserve a double court the other day – we played tennis twice as long. Gotta love the summertime, with half the racquet club members on vacation! Our group decided to have a picnic after tennis – I’ll give you half a guess who came up with that idea…

My contribution? My Perfect Picnic Pasta Salad, and granola! The pasta salad was made the night before, giving it time to get all flavorful and well, perfect. The granola? Super easy to make – I threw this together that morning!

Six ingredients. Well five, really – salt is essential for flavor but extra, right? Between mixing, baking, cooling, and taste testing, you can have Oatmeal Raisin Cookie Granola in half an hour!
