Breakfast Cookies

By Venzie

Just because they're called breakfast cookies doesn't mean you can't enjoy them anytime of day!

Ingredients

• 3 mashed bananas (ripe),
• 1/3 cup apple sauce,
• 2 cups uncooked quick-cooking oats,
• 1/4 cup skim milk,
• 1/2 cup raisins (or any other dried fruit you want to add),
• 1 teaspoon vanilla,
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1 tablespoon Splenda , sugar or other sweetener.

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350°F.

Mix all ingredients in a bowl really well.

Let this mixture stand for at least 5 minutes to let the oats become good and hydrated.

Heap the dough by teaspoonfuls onto a greased cookie sheet.

Bake for 15 to 20 minutes and let cool.

Variations: If you add some chopped nuts, you have a grab and go breakfast that includes protein as well as fruits and grains. Dried cranberries are also a great addition if you don’t care for raisins, which some people don’t.
