How can I make a high fiber dessert?

High Fiber Cookies

So, try as you might, you couldn't make that meal as high fiber as you would have liked. Well, all hope is not lost—you can get that daily dose of fiber in through your dessert. Stop laughing now, it's true!

There are many desserts out there that are both delicious and nutritious. Try this amazing cookie recipe to pack in the fiber and the taste:

  • 1 cup of whole wheat flour
  • 1 cup of bran flakes
  • ½ cup of oats
  • ½ cup of wheat germ
  • ½ teaspoon of baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon of salt
  • 2 packets of artificial sweetener or ½ cup sugar
  • ½ cup corn oil
  • 1 cup of molasses
  • 2 eggs
  • ½ cup natural peanut butter
  • ½ cup raisins
  • ½ cup chopped nuts

Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Mix together the bran flakes, flour, wheat germ, oats, salt, soda, and sweetener or sugar and set aside. In a small bowl, mix oil, molasses and eggs together. Then, add peanut butter and blend. Next, add the dry ingredients followed by nuts and raisins. Put dough on a greased cookie sheet in heaping spoonfuls. Bake the cookies for about 20 minutes (until browned).
