Oatmeal-Almond Crisps

 

This is a recipe from Martha Stewart.  It is super easy to prepare and can be eaten as crisps or crumbled to make granola.  I love the taste of the melted, caramelized brown sugar in this recipe.  The next time I make this recipe, I plan to crumble it into granola and use it to make a yogurt, granola, and fresh strawberry parfait for me and my kiddos.

Ingredients


  • 1/3 cup packed light-brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups rolled oats, (not quick-cooking)
  • 1/2 cup sliced almonds
  • Nonstick cooking spray

Directions


  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk brown sugar, butter, egg, and vanilla until smooth. Mix in oats and almonds.
  3. Drop mixture by level tablespoons onto prepared baking sheets, spacing about 2 inches apart. Spray the underside of a metal spatula with nonstick cooking spray, and use to flatten cookies into 2 1/2-inch disks.
  4. Bake until golden, 14 to 16 minutes. Cool completely on baking sheets. (Handle with care; cookies are fragile.)
