Apple Cinnamon Breakfast Cookie Recipe

Last night I wanted to bake something that would be good for a mid afternoon snack. I wanted something that I can just grab and go (like the protein bars from last week!). I decided to make a breakfast cookie/muffin. They turned out great!!!

Ingredients:

• 2 cups whole wheat oats (I used quick cooking oats)
• 1/4 cup Truvia (I used 10 packets)
• 1 tsp baking powder
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 4 scoops vanilla protein
• 2 tbs cinnamon
• 8 oz of applesauce (baby food)
• 3/4 cup liquid egg whites (4 egg whites)
• 1/4 cup plain greek yogurt
• 1/4 cup water

Recipe:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
• In a large mixing bowl, mix together dry ingredients (oats, truvia, baking powder, salt, protein & cinnamon).
• Add wet ingredients to dry mix (applesauce, egg whites & greek yogurt). Mix well!
• Spray baking pan with non-stick spray. I used a muffin top pan that created 12 perfectly sized portions. You can also use a regular pan and just divide the servings by 12.
• Fill the pain with the mix. I filled each spot to the very top. I was able to fit the entire recipe into 12 cookie spots.
• You can also add some fruit to the top of each cookie to spice things up. For this recipe, I made them plain.
• Bake for about 15-20 min or until golden brown.
• When you remove from the oven, make sure that a knife comes out clean when placed in the center.
• This recipe makes 12 servings!
