Description

Crunchy, mix-and-match cookies packed with seeds, pretzels, oats, and chocolate — perfect for lunchboxes or snacks.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup (227 g) unsalted butter, room temperature
  • 1 cup (200 g) packed brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup (100 g) granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 cups (250 g) all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 2 cups old-fashioned oats
  • 1 cup crushed pretzels
  • 1 cup rice cereal (like Chex)
  • 3/4 cup chopped nuts or seeds (optional)
  • 1 cup chocolate chips
  • 1/2 cup dried cranberries
  • 2 tbsp everything-bagel-style seasoning

Instructions

  1. Cream the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 2–3 minutes.
  2. Beat in the eggs and vanilla until combined.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
  4. Stir in the oats to the dry ingredients, then fold into the wet mixture.
  5. Add the pretzels, rice cereal, nuts/seeds, chocolate chips, cranberries, and everything-bagel seasoning; mix until combined.
  6. Drop 1½–2 tbsp scoops of dough onto a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  7. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 10–12 minutes until the edges are golden.
  8. Cool on a wire rack to crisp up.

Notes

Chilling the dough for 30 minutes helps to control spread and improve texture.
