3 ingredient Healthy Oatmeal Breakfast Cookies

Leave a reply

The intention was to make simple healthy oatmeal “cookies” & muffins for quick breakfast and snacks. I wanted them to be easy to put in mason jars and carry out the door. This is so simple!

2 cups Oatmeal + 3 very ripe Bananas + 1 cup Almond Butter
I baked these at 350 degrees for 15ish minutes.

I had fun being creative with a few fun ingredients in different batches. One batch had cacao and I pressed those onto the baking sheet to be cookie like. One batch had ginger and I made them like muffins and ate them with apple butter. I added in raisins on all to give a little sweetness.

Do you like oatmeal to go? What fun ingredients would you add?

Ingredients

  • 2 cups Oatmeal

  • 3 ripe Bananas

  • 1 cup Almond Butter

  • Optional

  • Dash of cinnamon

  • 1/4 cup dried fruit like raisins, cherries, or currents

  • 1/4 cup chopped pecans or walnuts

Directions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees
  • Peel and mash bananas in a large mixing bowl
  • Stir in oatmeal and almond butter until everything is well mixed
  • Spoon mixture onto a cookie sheet in small 2 tablespoon sized clumps. Roll the clumps into small balls and smash down to flat cookie like circles. Because there’s no flour or baking soda these will not rise, but cook in the same shape they go in the oven.
  • Bake at 350 degrees for 15 minutes or until golden brown

Notes

  • Enjoy hot from the oven and put back whatever is not immediately eaten in mason jars for easy grab and go breakfast and snack portions.

    If you are able to reheat in a toaster oven or air fryer right before eating the saved portions, its gonna make you smile! They reheat so well and make a great warm snack or breakfast. They are filling because of their density and a 3 cookies make a satiating snack or breakfast. If you have jam or apple butter on hand, its a nice addition on top!

    Chickpea Egg Breakfast Sandwich

    Chickpea “Egg” Breakfast Sandwich

    Leave a reply

    Breakfast Sandwiches are such easy way to grab a healthy breakfast on the way out the door in the morning. These are a great thing to make up on the weekend while making chickpea quiche… just make an extra quiche to cut into sandwich sized slices.

    These are simple to assemble. I often make them up on a Sunday afternoon with the leftover chickpea quiche I had earlier in the weekend.

    I like to toast the English Muffins so that they are a little more hearty for sitting wrapped up in the fridge a few days. Sometimes I spread some nut cream cheese on the bottom piece of bread and sometimes I add a slice of cheese.

    The chickpea quiche recipe is simple for making a whole pan of “eggs” but sometimes I will just make up a quick skillet chickpea egg as well and just toss in some chopped spinach, salt and pepper, and onion salt for extra flavor. I mix chickpea flour and water at a 1:1 ration when making up scrambled eggs on the fly. I just pop it into a counter top mixer like a vitamix or a magic bullet mixer to get the mixer nice and smooth before pouring into the skillet and frying up like I would a traditional scrambled egg. Have you tried this ?

    Fresh Fruit Yogurt Jars

    This is an easy and beautiful way to make up breakfast or snacks for the week or for a gathering. They look bright and beautiful and the mason jars work so well to keep things fresh and easy to serve.


    Use your favorite plant-centric yogurt on the bottom if you would like to skip the traditional dairy yogurt.  This is kite hill yogurt, and there are many brands of plain or vanilla yogurt made from nut milks these days.  Coconut, and almond milk are some of our favorite plant based yogurts.  Maybe you will want to be creative and use flavored yogurts as the base. 


    The toppings we used here are a bit unique.  Have you ever tried sprinkling quinoa in overnight yogurt bowls.  It softens but still gives a light crunch.  Chia seeds are a natural option.  Coconut flakes, pecans, walnuts, and of course berries are favorites as well. What do you like to put on your yogurt bowls? Have you ever tried making them up ahead and storing in the fridge in mason jars?
