This healthy oatmeal breakfast cookies recipe is just what the name implies. These homemade breakfast cookies are packed with nutrients, full of fiber and protein that satiate your hunger and leave you with long lasting energy.

I used to keep a stash of these cookies in my freezer when I was nursing, and they were a real lifesaver on busy mornings! You definitely are going to want a stash of these freezer friendly breakfast cookies that the whole family (including kids) will LOVE!
Ripe banana– Adds sweetness and softness to these breakfast cookies.
Rolled oats-Makes these cookies soft and chewy.
Einkorn flour-Regular flour will work too, but I personally love the nutty undertones and chewy texture einkorn flour lends to einkorn cookies.
Date syrup or honey- Adds a touch of sweetness.
Peanut butter or Almond butter-Adds healthy fats, helps bind everything together.
Walnuts, pecans or sunflower seeds- You can mix it up and add whatever nuts you like.
Raisins, craisins or dried cherries-You can use whatever dried fruit you love! Adds fiber and texture to the cookies.
Coconut flakes (unsweetened)
Salt
Baking soda
Protein powder (whey or vegan)- I like Flavcity vanilla creme whey protein and I also really love Four Sigmatic organic vegan protein powder. Both are superior protein powders and trust me I’ve tried MANY!
These cookies are an incredible freezer friendly breakfast and that’s actually how I prefer to eat them-directly from the freezer. They’re perfect for those busy mornings when you need a quick and delicious meal without any hassle. Simply pull them out of the freezer and enjoy eating them right away, no need to thaw.
