Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F/176°C.

• Add in the flour, vanilla extract, cinnamon, baking soda and salt. Beat on low speed until well combined.
• Mix in the cereal flakes, dried cranberries and rolled oats. The dough will be stiff, so you may need to do it by hand, otherwise continue using the electric beater on low speed until well mixed.

• Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until lightly golden.
• Remove from the oven and allow to cool on a cooling rack.
