Ingredients

• 1 cup Whole wheat flour
• 0.5 cup Rolled oats
• 0.25 cup Rye flour
• 0.25 cup Cornmeal
• 0.25 cup Millet flour
• 0.25 cup Barley flour
• 0.25 cup Quinoa flour
• 1 teaspoon Baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 cup Unsalted butter (softened)
• 0.5 cup Brown sugar (packed)
• 0.25 cup Granulated sugar
• 1 large Egg
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.5 cup Chopped nuts (optional)
• 0.5 cup Dried cranberries or raisins (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, rolled oats, rye flour, cornmeal, millet flour, barley flour, quinoa flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 4

Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter mixture and beat until well combined.

Step 5

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined. The dough will be dense and slightly sticky.

Step 6

If desired, fold in the chopped nuts and dried cranberries or raisins for added texture and flavor.

Step 7

Using a tablespoon or small cookie scoop, drop rounded balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. The centers may still look slightly soft, but they will firm up as the cookies cool.

Step 9

Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 10

Serve your Old Fashion 7 Grain Cookies with a cold glass of milk, a warm cup of tea, or as an on-the-go treat.
