Carrot Granola Cookies

6 Tbsp. unsalted butter, softened
3/4 c. light brown sugar
1 egg
1 tsp. vanilla
1/4 tsp. lemon extract
1 1/2 c. raw carrot, shredded
3/4 c. whole wheat flour, sifted
1/4 c. powdered buttermilk
1/2 tsp. baking soda
pinch salt
1/2 tsp. cinnamon
1/4 tsp. allspice
1/4 tsp. ginger
2 c. granola cereal

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cream together the butter and brown sugar. Add egg, vanilla and lemon extract and beat until fluffy. Add the grated carrot and mix well. In a separate mixing bowl, combine well the flour, buttermilk, powder, baking soda, salt and spices. Add the dry ingredients to the butter-carrot mixture and beat thoroughly. Mix in the granola. On greased cookie sheets, drop rounded teaspoonfuls of batter and bake for approximately 10 minutes or until edges brown slightly. Be sure to cool them on a rack.
