My 1st grade son brought home a recipe for Apple Jack Cookies the other day from school. They made them to learn about measurements and he insisted I make some more as they were “so good!” So we made some this afternoon and I thought I would share the recipe here as well.

Believe it or not I still have apples left in the fride from fall picking. This would be a great recipe to use them up, I am sick of applesauce. Thanks
