I am super excited to share this third and final post in my All-Bran recipe series. Because today we have dessert and a VIDEO!!!
This series is all about giving you inspiration to add All-Bran to your favorite recipes in order to increase your daily fibre intake. We started with a Baked Falafel Appetizer and then had this Chicken & Brown Rice Casserole for dinner.
Today I have a fibre-filled dessert recipe that I know you will love.

These Pumpkin Oatmeal Cookies are chewy and get extra crunchy from the added All-Bran cereal.
I have an intense love affair with anything that includes oats. Granola, overnight oatmeal and - of course - cookies! I also love baking and cooking with pumpkin all year round (my pumpkin breakfast cookies are an all-time reader favorite as well). You can see that it was only a matter of time until I made Pumpkin Oatmeal Cookies.
With whole grain oats, whole wheat flour, All-Bran fibre cereal, vegetable puree and no refined sugar as sweetener there is nothing guilt-inducing about these cookies. I freely admit to having had some for breakfast even.
Olivia is a big fan of them too. She'll pick out and eat the chocolate chips first, before proceeding to the cookie. This girl knows what tastes good 😉

Random Questions
Yes, pumpkin puree can be used as a substitute for butter in cookies. It adds moisture and a subtle pumpkin flavor, making the cookies softer and healthier.
To keep oatmeal cookies moist, avoid overbaking them. Incorporate moist ingredients like pumpkin puree or applesauce, and consider reducing the baking time slightly.
Pumpkin cookies can become flat if the dough is too warm when placed in the oven or if there's too much sugar or butter. Chilling the cookie dough before baking and adjusting the ingredient ratios can help prevent flat cookies.
Oatmeal cookies can fall apart if there's not enough binding agent, such as eggs or flour, or if they're underbaked. Ensuring the right balance of ingredients and proper baking time can help keep the cookies intact.
