We all know the old mantra “Breakfast is the most important meal of the day.” But we also know that getting everyone out of the house on time is a challenge, and breakfast is often rushed or skipped entirely. We’ve found a way to speed up the morning routine with this great breakfast cookie recipe. Our cookies have oats, cranberries, and a little chocolate to make it feel like we’re getting away with a dessert for breakfast. Have one with a cup of coffee or as a snack to keep on hand to curb mid-morning munchies.

These whip up so quickly with staple ingredients that we like to keep in our pantry. When we want to make these a little healthier, we replace half of the butter with applesauce, or use 1 cup of coconut oil, then, to add a little protein, we sometimes mix in slivered almonds or chopped walnuts to add a little crunch. These cookies are sure to disappear quickly, so don’t forget to grab one to go!
