Cranberry Almond Breakfast Cookies
A pretty healthy breakfast "cookie" that you can eat anytime - loaded with fiber and some protein.
Ingredients
Directions
- Combine whole wheat flour, baking soda, salt, allspice, cinnamon, and ginger. Stir well and set aside.
- Place eggs, vegetable oil, unsweetened apple sauce, and brown sugar in a large bowl and beat together well.
- Add orange zest, vanilla, oats, chopped almonds, and sunflower seeds and stir until well combined.
- Add flour mixture and stir until just combined; don't over-mix.
- Using a 1/4 cup of cookie dough at a time (or use a 1/4 cup ice cream scooper for ease) for each cookie, place rounded spoons of dough on a prepared cookie sheet. Press them down slightly with a fork to flatten.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes or until lightly browned. Allow to cool on the cookie sheet before removing onto a cooling rack.
- Note: you can replace the cranberries with chocolate chips if you prefer as well as walnuts for the almonds. In addition, instead of 2 large eggs, save some calories and use 5 egg whites instead.
