I first published this fantastic recipe for healthy breakfast cookies from Vicki F. many years ago in my free Amazing Cookies newsletter.
I made a slight modification and replaced the 1/3 cup olive oil she uses with 1/3 cup coconut oil since my taste buds prefer coconut to olive.
If everyone in your family is in such a hurry most morning that breakfast is getting skipped, try these cookies!
Healthy Breakfast Cookies
3 cups oats
2 medium bananas
Just under 1/3 cup coconut oil
1/3 tsp salt or to taste
1/3 to 1/2 cup dates (pitted)
2/3 cup toasted almonds or any nut you like (optional)
2/3 cup carob chips (optional)
Mix oats and salt. Add coconut oil and mix well.
In a blender, mix bananas and dates until well blended and smooth. You can add a little brown rice syrup or maple syrup if you want them sweet.
Add banana mixture to the oats and blend well. Add nuts and carob if you like. Let stand for half an hour.
On an ungreased cookie sheet, form cookies (they will not spread or change at all with baking, so make them nice!)
Bake in a preheated 350F degree oven for 12-15 minutes
Makes about 24 cookies, unless a bigger cookie is desired.
