Description

These easy cereal cookies are made with 3 morning favorites — cornflakes, rice cereal, and oats — for a sweet treat to enjoy as a breakfast on the go.

Ingredients

1 cup cornflakes, lightly crushed
1 cup crispy rice cereal
1 cup rolled oats
4 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking soda
1 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 cup canola oil
1 cup white sugar
1 cup brown sugar
1 large egg
2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Directions

1 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
2 Combine cornflakes, rice cereal, and oats in a large bowl. Whisk flour and baking soda together in a separate bowl.
3 Beat butter, oil, and both sugars in a very large bowl until smooth. Add egg and vanilla; beat until smooth. Slowly mix in flour mixture. Stir in cereal mixture by hand.
4 Drop tablespoonfuls of dough 2 inches apart onto the prepared baking sheets. Flatten balls with the bottom of a glass for even cooking and crispier cookies.
5 Bake in batches in the preheated oven until edges are golden, 10 to 12 minutes. Cool on the baking sheet for 1 minute before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.
