In honor of their new and improved granola (crispier and with smaller granola clusters!) and Mother's Day 2009, Enjoy Life Foods came up with this deliciously light mother's day cookie recipe that showcases the sweet goodness of cranberries and apples. Beyond gluten-free, it is also vegan, soy-free, dairy-free, egg-free, and nut-free ... in true Enjoy Life fashion! If gluten-free isn't a concern for you, feel free to substitute the flours with all-purpose or whole wheat pastry flour, and omit the xanthan gum. While you can use another granola, Cranapple Crunch does sound perfect for this one doesn't it? You can purchase Enjoy Life Granolas in stores (coupons to print are often available on Enjoy Life's website), direct from Enjoy Life Foods, or via Amazon Grocery, where they are typically on sale for a good price.
