I am looking for a recipe that my mother used to make when I was a child, about 20 or so years ago. It was a savory healthful breakfast cookie-type thing. The recipe was originally distributed in a recipe booklet by Quaker and it called for oats, eggs, bacon, and cheese among other things that we have forgotten. Does anyone have this recipe?
2/3 cup butter or margerine, softened 2/3 cup sugar 1 egg 1 teaspoon vanilla 3/4 cup all-purpose flour 1/2 teaspoon baking soda 1/2 teaspoon salt (optional) 1-1/2 cups Quaker oats (Quick or Old Fashioned, uncooked) 1 cup (4 ounces) shredded Cheddar chesse 1/2 cup Kretschmer's Wheat Germ or chopped nuts 6 slices bacon, crisply cooked
preparation
1. Preheat oven to 350° F. 2. Beat together butter, sugar, egg and vanilla until well blended. 3. Combine flour, baking soda and salt; mix well. Stir in oats, cheese, wheat germ and bacon. Add to butter mixture. 4. Drop by rounded teaspoonsful on to greased cookie sheet: bake 12 to 14 mins or until edges are golden brown. Cool 1 min on cookie sheet: removed to wire cooling rack. Store in losely covered container in refrigerator or at room temperature.
Servings: 3 dozen
notes and cook tips These crisp cookies are made with bacon and cheese. So they're extra high in protein and good nutrition.
If this one is not exactly what you want, enter "breakfast cookies" in the search box at the top of the page on the site. I like their recipes and refer to it often.
