Deb's Notes:

When I eat granola and yogurt I like my granola crunchy. I bought a brand I was unfamiliar with, which was tasty, but not crunchy...so what to do? Waste not want not! I converted an oatmeal recipe into this and my husband LOVES!!! them.

Directions

Heat oven to 350 degrees.

In a large bowl beat butter and sugars on medium spead of electric mixer until creamy. Slowly incorporate the oil.

Add eggs, beat well

Combine flour, baking soda, cinnamon and salt in a bowl; mix well. Gradually add to the sugar, shortening and egg mix. Mix well.

Add oatmeal, granola and dried cranberries; mix well.

Drop dough by rounded tablespoonfuls onto ungreased cookie sheets

bake 10-12 minutes or until a light golder brown. Cool 1-2 minutes on cookie sheet and then remove them to paper towels.
