About This Recipe
Cookie Crumble Granola is a fun and nostalgic twist on traditional granola, blending wholesome oats with sweet cookie fragments that add irresistible flavor and crunch. Whether you are repurposing leftover cookies or intentionally buying your favorite brand, the result is a gourmet-style granola that tastes like dessert but can be enjoyed at breakfast.
This recipe works beautifully for holidays like Christmas, where gifting edible treats is part of the tradition. Packing the granola into glass jars with ribbon turns it into a personal, homemade gift that feels luxurious without requiring complicated ingredients or techniques.
The flavor profile can be easily adapted by switching cookie types — gingerbread cookies add spice for winter mornings, chocolate chip cookies create a dessert-style granola, and shortbread gives a buttery richness. For an international twist, mix in dried fruits, coconut flakes, or crushed nuts depending on taste and season.
Whether sprinkled over creamy yogurt, layered into dessert parfaits, or eaten directly from the jar, this granola delivers flavor, texture, and versatility. It is an ideal recipe for households that enjoy both rustic simplicity and sweet holiday indulgence — and it always disappears faster than expected.
