Almond Butter Oatmeal Breakfast Cookies

Almond Butter Oatmeal Breakfast Cookies are a healthy breakfast treat made with simple, wholesome ingredients such as bananas, almond butter, and oatmeal. {vegan}

We are always looking for quick and easy breakfasts – something healthy that can be eaten on-the-go. And when that means eating (healthy) cookies for breakfast, even better! When I stumbled upon these vegan breakfast cookies, I could not get to the kitchen fast enough to whip up a batch. Almond Butter Oatmeal Breakfast Cookies are really easy to make, using ingredients commonly found in the pantry. They taste even better the second day (or third, if they last that long). Since they are so moist and chewy, I stored them in the refrigerator. They were really tasty chilled as well! From the bananas to the oatmeal to the almond butter, Almond Butter Oatmeal Breakfast Cookies are like a healthy bowl of oatmeal in cookie form.

Almond Butter Oatmeal Breakfast Cookies
 
Yields: 24 cookies
Ingredients
  • ¼ cup whole wheat pastry flour
  • 2½ cups rolled oats (I used quick oats)
  • ½ teaspoon cinnamon
  • 2 overripe bananas, mashed
  • ⅓ cup almond butter (or peanut butter)
  • ¼ cup unsweetened applesauce
  • 2 tablespoons Silk Unsweetened Coconutmilk
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Line 2 cookie sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine flour, oats and cinnamon.
  3. In a large bowl, beat the bananas, almond butter, applesauce, milk, maple syrup and vanilla until smooth.
  4. Add oat mixture to banana mixture, stirring until combined.
  5. Drop spoonfuls of mixture onto prepared baking sheets. [Note: these cookies don't really spread, so you may want to shape them with the back of a spoon] Bake for 12 minutes, or until slightly golden. Move to a wire rack to cool completely. Store in the refrigerator.

Silk helps me enjoy variety with my healthy breakfast recipes. I had some Silk Unsweetened Coconutmilk in the fridge from my latest smoothie concoction, so that is what I used in these cookies. You can easily substitute your favorite flavor of Silk or try something new. Silk has a wide variety of dairy-free milk products that would be delicious in these cookies, such as Silk Dark Chocolate Almondmilk, Silk Vanilla Soymilk and more.
