    Addicted to these breakfast cookies

    About 80 cal each, I have 2-3 for breakfast. Really good and more importantly very EASY (no eggs, flour, baking soda, etc). Really they are just oatmeal that you bake in a cookie shape. Best part is I'm full for 3 hours until lunch.

    Just note I made a few changes:
    1) I don't add protein powder or butter extract, as I'm not a believer in that sorta stuff.
    2) I sweeten with about 2 tbsp of maple syrup or honey (it's worth it, trust me).
    3) I add a bunch of cinnamon, a hint of nutmeg, and a pinch of salt. That's it! Be sure to bake them until crispy around the edges (~30 min), wait til they cool completely, then store them in a sealed container (not in the fridge).
    4) Be sure to add the chopped nuts (I use walnuts) and chocolate chips! They bring it to the next level.

      You don't believe in protein powder? They have it in most grocery stores now

      Nah, I just don't like the flavor. Why have protein powder when you can have peanut butter or nuts or cheese or meat etc etc. Fears of fat content are overrated, I think, what really matters is calorie content, portion size, and making sure food tastes good!
