Cookies For Breakfast!

I found this recipe at Hippie With a Minivan and decided that I must try it.

I made it two different ways. One way for me and one way for my daughter.

For my daughter I stuck to the exact recipe and she loved it!

This is it:

In a medium sized bowl, mix the following:

• 1 1/3 cup Oatmeal
• 1/4 cup golden raisins
• 1/4 cup chocolate chips
• 1/4 cup flour
• 1 cup non-fat powdered milk
  
• 1/4 cup sugar
• 1 tsp baking powder
• pinch of salt
• 1 tsp cinnamon
• 1/4 cup pecans
  

once that's mixed, add in

• 1 cup Apple Sauce
• 1 tsp vanilla

Mix it all together & spoon medium sized mounds of the dough onto a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper.

bake at 350 degree oven for about 15 min.

I got 6 good sized cookies out of this recipe & they were fantastic!



Now, what I did for my version of this was the following:

In a medium sized bowl, mix the following:

• 1 1/3 cup Oatmeal
• 1/4 cup dried pineapple
  
• 1/4 cup white chocolate chips
• 1/4 cup flour
• 1 cup non-fat powdered milk
  
• 1/4 cup sugar
• 1 tsp baking powder
• pinch of salt
• 1 tsp cinnamon
• 1/4 cup macadamia nuts
• pinch of vanilla bean
  

once that's mixed, add in

• 1 cup Apple Sauce
• 1 tsp vanilla

and follow the same baking instructions as above.

These were a big hit & me and my daughter

* * * note: i've been playing around with this & have used different sauces besides apple sauce. i most recently used a sweet potato sauce i made and added cranberries, pecans and used orange extract instead of vanilla & it was even better!

This recipe lends itself to creativity & i try to mix it up every so often.
