BREAKFAST COOKIE

Breakfast Cookie Recipe

Ingredients:

– 2 1/2 cups old-fashioned oats (gluten-free)

– 3/4 cup gluten-free or all-purpose flour

– 1/4 cup coconut sugar or maple syrup

– 1 teaspoon baking powder

– 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

– 1/8 teaspoon salt

– 1/2 cup + 1 tablespoon non-dairy milk (such as almond or oat milk)

– 1 mashed banana

– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

– 1/2 cup slivered almonds

– 1/2 cup pumpkin seeds

– 1/2 cup cranberries

– 1/2 cup chocolate chips (optional)

– 1/4 cup raisins (optional)

Instructions:

Combine all the ingredients in a single bowl, ensuring they’re thoroughly mixed. It’s a simple process.

Take 1/4 cup of dough for each cookie and arrange them on two baking sheets lined with parchment paper. This recipe makes 12 large cookies, so place 6 on each sheet.

Flatten the tops of the cookies slightly. Use the back of a spoon to create large discs rather than tall mounds; this helps them maintain their shape since they don’t spread much during baking.

Bake them at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for approximately 15-18 minutes, but keep an eye on them as the exact time can vary based on your oven. Remove oven and place on a cookie rack. Cool and Enjoy!!
