Healthy Breakfast Cookies: A Delicious and Nutritious Grab and Go Breakfast Option

These breakfast cookies are an ideal breakfast meal prep! They are a delicious, soft, cakey, cookie that everyone in the family can enjoy!

These are gluten free and aren’t full of added sugar, making these a great choice for breakfast for anyone.

The oat flour can be purchased or made at home. I usually make mine at home because I have a smoothie maker. If you have one too you can easily put the rolled oats into the blender cup and blend away until it is smooth. This is a really easy way to use an ingredient in your cupboard without having to buy something else.

These cookies are very similar to a delicious and healthy baked oatmeal in taste and texture. They are moist and cakey when you bit into them. The flavors are light, midly sweet without being too much. You can also mix anything into these cookies that you want as well. If you have dried fruit or other types of chocolate you can easily pop them in there to add variety to the cookies you are making.

Why You’ll Love These Breakfast Cookies

These cookies are easy and very quick to prepare. It takes minimal dishes to make and you can whip them up in no time!

The ingredients in these cookies are very healthy. Applesauce, oatmeal, eggs, and a few other baking essentials keep these from being filled with a bunch of other stuff, keeping them healthy and simple, yet oh so flavorful.

Healthy Breakfast Cookies are also a great thing to meal prep for both adults and kids. This is a very kid friendly meal prep idea so they can grab them as they are heading out the door to start their school day on the right foot.

Fiber, a little protein, and so many vitamins and minerals are packed into these cookies. They are also low sugar, only coming from the maple syrup and applesauce, so they are lightly sweet but not from anything but natural ingredients.

Tips for the Perfect Breakfast Cookies

If you want to add a little more fiber and some plant proteins you can add in some chia seeds or flax seeds pretty easily. You can also try adding a scoop of your favorite protein powder.

If you don’t have maple syrup on hand you can use the same amount of honey.

If chocolate chips aren’t your thing, you can also add in dried fruit, coconut, pumpkin seeds, or a combination of all of these!

Last pro tip – do not over bake these. They will get dry and they firm up as they sit and cool, so take them out when you notice the edges turning golden brown.

Meal Prep and Storage Tips

If you are meal prepping for the week or month, these cookies freeze really well for up to 4 months in your favorite freezer container.

Keep them in an airtight container no matter what to maintain the quailty.

These cookies are perfect for meal prep, which will help take the stress out of the morning routine. You know you have a solid breakfast for anyone in the family.
