Today we’re talking breakfast! I love breakfast, but during the week I need to keep things fast and simple. I’m sure you can all relate, leaving early to commute to the office doesn’t leave much time for breakfast. And that brings us to todays recipe, breakfast cookies. Sounds good right?
So these cookies are super tasty, but I refuse to eat un healthy food for breakfast, so I knew I had to make these taste good while still being full of nutrients. These cookies have oats, whole wheat flour, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, cranberries and raisins. All of those tasty ingredients get mixed with mashed banana, almond butter, maple syrup and almond milk to create a delicious dough. Oh and theres a few chocolate chips thrown in there for good measure! Mix all of the ingredients together to create a dough and bake for 12-14 minutes!
These turned out so much better then I ever expected! Believe me I was skeptical, but they were so yummy! They’re filling, nutrient dense, full of fibre and protein. Grab one or two on your way out the door for a great on the go breakfast!
