Banana Pumpkin Date Breakfast Cookie
The foundation of these breakfast cookies is simple, versatile, and packed with nutrients:
½ cup banana, mashed OR ½ cup applesauce OR ½ cup roasted sweet potato or pure pumpkin: This is where the moisture and natural sweetness come from. Bananas add a tropical flavor, applesauce offers a hint of tartness, and sweet potato or pumpkin gives a rich, earthy taste. Each option brings its unique set of vitamins, fiber, and antioxidants.
¼ cup nut butter or seed butter of choice: Whether you choose almond butter, peanut butter, or sunflower seed butter, this ingredient provides healthy fats and protein, keeping you full and energized throughout the morning.
½ tbsp chia seeds & 2 tbsp hemp seeds: These tiny seeds are nutritional powerhouses. Chia seeds are high in fiber and omega-3 fatty acids, while hemp seeds provide a good dose of protein and healthy fats.
2 tbsp maple syrup: A touch of natural sweetness that pairs perfectly with the other flavors. You can substitute with your preferred sweetener, like honey or agave syrup, to suit your taste.
1 tsp cinnamon: This spice not only adds warmth and depth of flavor but also brings along anti-inflammatory properties.
1 cup rolled oats: Oats are a classic breakfast staple. They’re high in fiber, gluten-free (if you choose), and provide a steady release of energy to keep you going.
Optional Add-Ins
Customize your cookies with these delicious and nutritious add-ins:
1/4 cup chopped nuts, seeds, or mini chocolate chips: Whether you want a bit of crunch, extra protein, or a touch of indulgence, these add-ins are perfect for making each bite more exciting.
1/3 cup dried fruit or fresh fruit: Raisins, cranberries, dried cherries, chopped dried apricots, or dates add natural sweetness and chewiness, while chopped apples or fresh blueberries bring a burst of freshness.
