If you read this blog on a regular basis, you may have caught on that I’m a cookie nut. I hesitate to say cookie monster, but I prefer any cookie over traditional desserts or snacks.
I was checking out the blog at My Fitness Pal and spotted these easy-peasy cookies. These 3-ingredient breakfast cookies are so simple you can mix ingredients together and cook them in about 20 minutes. Wouldn’t your family love to wake up to the aroma of freshly baked cookies… and get to eat them for breakfast? Bonus – they are healthy too! They are gluten-free (if you use gluten-free oats and chocolate chips), egg-free, and dairy-free in case that is a criterion for you or your family.
The cookies don’t spread out like others so if you want a flatter cookie, flatten out before cooking. I left mine as they tumbled off the spoon, but next time I may flatten them out as I had to add a little more baking time to achieve the correct doneness.
These cookies are so good I call them “anytime” cookies – you don’t have to eat them just for breakfast. They are great as snacks or dessert.
