Breakfast Cookies

My mom gave me this yummy recipe for breakfast cookies and I just had to share it with all of you. They are perfect if you're not a big breakfast eater or if you need something quick to eat on the way to the gym in the am. They also make a good afternoon snack. They are easy to make and pretty healthy for the most part.

Ingredients:
4 mashed bananas
1/2 c chunky peanut butter
1/2 c honey
1 tsp vanilla
1 c rolled oats
1/2 c whole wheat flour
1/4 c nonfat dry milk (or more flour or protein powder)
2 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp baking soda
1 c dried cranberries/raisins/mini chocolate chips/etc.

Directions:
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees and spray cookie sheets (even if they're non-stick).
Mix your ingredients in a large bowl.
Using 1/4 c measure, drop mounds of dough 3" apart on the cookie sheets.
Flatten and spread each mound to 2 and 3/4"round and about 1/2" thick.
Bake one sheet at a time for 14-16 minutes.
Cool on wire racks.
Store in an airtight container up to three days.
You can also freeze the cookies for up to two months.


Let me know what you guys think! Enjoy!
