How to Make Light And Healthy Cookies

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the rice cereal, rolled oats, brown sugar, melted butter, vanilla extract, and salt.
  3. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly combined and the cereal and oats are lightly coated.
  4. Roll the mixture into 1-inch balls.
  5. Place the cookie balls onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each cookie.
  6. Slightly flatten each cookie ball with a fork.
  7. Bake for 11-13 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
  8. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
