If coconut macaroons and oatmeal cookies had a love child, I'm pretty sure it would be these cookies. The photo for the <strong><a href="https://food52.com/contests/332-your-best-recipe-with-cereal">Best Recipe with Cereal Contest</a></strong> reminded me that I hadn't used Cracklin' Oat Bran® for about a million years, and some lonely egg whites in the back of my bridge inspired me to create macaroons. <br /> <br />I used <strong><a href="https://food52.com/recipes/16667-alice-medrich-s-new-classic-coconut-macaroons">Alice Medrich's Genius Coconut Macaroons</a></strong> as my starting point, beginning with an even mix of sweetened shredded coconut and Cracklin' Oat Bran. I threw in some dried tart cherries and cinnamon for some extra pizzazz. Give them a try—I don't think you'll be disappointed!
