Directions:
* coarsely chopped Granola and brown sugar give this cookie its crunch and rich flavor. Preheat oven to 350. In a large bowl, measure all ingredients except raisins and peanuts.

Stir in raisins and peanuts until mixture is well blended. Drop dough by heaping teaspoonfuls, about 2 inches apart on greased cookie sheet.

Variations: Chocolate-Granola Cookies: prepare dough as for Raisin Granola cookies but substitute 6 ounces of semi-sweet chocolate pieces for half cup of raisins. Date-Granola Cookies: Substitute 1 cup of chopped, pitted date. for raisins. Yield: 3-4 dozen. Larry Rosenberg, author of Muffins & Cupcakes (published by The American Cooking Guild), Fairview, NJ.
