Hi! Welcome and thanks for joining us as we Fill the Cookie Jar with some of our favorite Thanksgiving cookie ideas!

When I think about Thanksgiving food, harvest comes to mind. Now how was I going to apply that to cookies?
Grains are the star of harvest time. Wheat stripped from the shaft and piled high ready to grind into wholesome flour. Nuts of all kinds, fruits like cranberries and apples ready to dry and preserve too, of course.
These cookies are made with whole grain cereal, dried cranberries, walnuts and some chocolate chips. Oh yeah, there’s cinnamon in there because its Fall after all!

Flavor packed cereal cookies have a chewy texture. These cookies make a great breakfast treat! Add a glass of milk and some juice.

Or even take some cereal cookies along for breakfast on the go!
