1 c Kellog's bran flakes
1 c Seedless raisins
1 c Chopped english walnuts
3/4 c Sugar

1 c Margarine (2 sticks)
2 Large egg whites
2 ts Vanilla

1 t Baking powder
1 t Baking soda
1/2 ts Salt

Place oat bran, rolled oats, Fiber one, bran flakes,
raisins and walnuts in a bowl. Mix lightly and set

before and after adding the egg whites. In a separate
bowl combine flour, baking powder, soda and salt and
mix at low speed about 1/2 min to blend well. Add
flour mixture and water to sugar mixture and mix at
medium speed only until flour is moistened. Add bran

Drop by heaping tablespoonfuls onto a cookie sheet
that has been sprayed with cooking spray or lined with
aluminum foil. Bake at 375 for 12-14 minutes or until
lightly browned. Remove from oven and let sit for 1
minute. Remove cookies to wire rack and cool to room
temperature. Author's Note: These cookies, which
provide 2 grams of dietary fiber each, aren't terribly
sweet. We like them this way, but if you prefer them
sweeter, you can add 1 tbsp Weight Watchers dry
substitute when adding the other sugars and this will
not change the nutritive values. Nutritive Value per
