Breakfast Maple Oat Cookies

Cookies for breakfast? Yes, please! 🍪 🌅. These are a nice change of pace from other typical breakfast items, and they’re a great “grab and go” option if you’re in a hurry. I made these with my four year old daughter. It’s a kid-friendly recipe that’s quick to make. She really enjoyed them, and I’m already thinking of how I could customize them further next time.

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Preheat the oven to 350°F
In a large bowl, mash the banana.
If you have a little kitchen helper like I do (i.e. my four year old daughter), this is a good task for them. - 2
Add the egg and maple syrup and mix until smooth.
- 3
Add all of the dry ingredients except the fruit and nuts.
Stir, and once everything is well moistened, gently stir in the dried fruit and nuts until they’re evenly distributed.
- 4
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Measure 1/4 cup portions and place them about 2 inches apart into the prepared sheet. You should have 9 cookies.
- 5
Use the back of a spoon to gently press on the cookies to flatten them just slightly. This will help them cook more evenly.
If they crumble a little at the edges, use your fingers to gently push them together.
- 6
Bake them in the preheated oven for about 15 minutes or until lightly browned.
Mine were ready in 14 minutes, and I might have been able to get away with 13 minutes, so keep an eye on them. - 7
Store the cookies in a sealed container in the refrigerator.
These are great for breakfast or as an afternoon snack. I like to warm them in the microwave for 10 seconds or less to take the chill off.

Notes:
🍪 You can substitute 1/2 cup applesauce for the banana, if you prefer.
🍪 The amount of sugar can easily be reduced, or you can replace the brown sugar entirely with Splenda (sucralose) or another alternative sweetener. I’ve made these by using 3 packets of Splenda instead of the brown sugar and they turned out great. - 9
Notes:
🍪. Don’t like dried fruit? Try chocolate chips!
🍪. Don’t have maple syrup? Honey will work (but the cookies will no longer be vegan).
🍪. No nuts? Try sunflower seeds. Or, mix in some ground flaxseed
🍪. These cookies can be frozen for up to 3 months.

Dangerously Good Oatmeal Maple Cookies Dangerously Good Oatmeal Maple Cookies
I read in a book that cookies made with oatmeal are crunchy. These really are!The trick is to spread them thinly. That's it. When they're done, they'll have a crunchy texture. They're not so sweet, so if you'd prefer them sweeter, add sugar. If it's difficult to get the dough to come together, try adding a tablespoon of water. Recipe by Meifan cookpad.japan -
