Oat and Whatever Breakfast Cookies Recipe
This recipe is another modification. I know, you may ask if I ever keep a recipe as I find it (occasionally). This recipe can be very flexible based on what you have in the house. I am posting the recipe as I have done it but you have endless possibilities for your WHATEVER!! My husband LOVES these. Great for the non-breakfast eater with a banana!
Ingredients
- 3/4 cup unsweetened applesauce
- 1/2 cup turbanado sugar
- 1 cup whole wheat flour
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp nutmeg
- 1 cup Old Fashioned Oats
- 1 to 1 1/2 cups of WHATEVER (chopped nuts, raisins, dried fruit, etc) below is what I use
- 1/4 cup raw sunflower seeds
- 5 dried dates, chopped
- 1/2 cup freeze dried cranberries
- 1/4 cup freeze dried blueberries
- 2 tsp dark chocolate chips chopped
Directions
- Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees
- In a large bowl mix together sugar and applesauce and set aside.
- Sift together the flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg and add to the applesauce mixture just until combined.
- Add oats and your "whatever" to the bowl and mix until combined.
- Drop on greased cookie sheet using a medium scoop (about 2 tbsp.) These do not spread like regular cookies.
- After you have scooped them all out you need to flatten them. I use the bottom of a measuring cup that I use a wet paper towel to keep it damp between "presses" . See my pic with recipe for what they look like before going in the oven.
- Bake for 15 mins. Remove from oven and leave on pan for 10 minutes to cool.
- Place in an air tight container once completely cooled.
