Breakfast Cookies With Apples and Raisins {Vegan, Gluten Free + Super Simple}

These easy, one-bowl breakfast cookies are made with oatmeal, apples, raisins and almond butter for a healthy, vegan breakfast, perfect for busy mornings!

Oh, umm, HAI. Raise your hand if your mouf kinda <3’s munching on cookies…FER BREAKFAST.

Yeah, basically the whole world just raised their hand. Except for a few unspeakable people. But, we just won’t acknowledge them because WHO DOESN’T WANT COOKIES FOR BREAKFAST?

If you were to walk into my kitchen right NOW, you would probably see flecks of wholesome, delicious oatmealy goodness all over my floor because these breakfast cookies? I’ve been making batches of them LEFT, RIGHT, UP, DOWN, CENTER. Whatever direction, they’ve been MADE IT IN.

Can you blame me? These cookies are the ultimate in healthy breakfast meal prep that tastes, LIKE, really really good.

If you want to know the TROOF behind them, well, I actually sometimes maybe-okay-you-caught-me-cookie-handed-yes-I-do eat this FER DINNER. But, liiiiike, in the face of healthy cookies with crispy pieces of oats, chewy dried apples, raisins and sweet bursts of maple in every bite? The only option is to shovel them in your mouth all day long. And keep opening the Tupperware container your stored them in SO FAST that maybe your husband doesn’t notice you sneakily ninja-ing a  few extra bites before he can even get to them.

Maybe he just won’t see the 5 half eaten, sort of crumbled ones tucked into the VERY back of the container. STOLEN COOKIE HIDING MODE: ENGAGED.

P.S Don’t worry vegan friends, you are totally included in these cookie-all-day-party jams because, YOU CAN EAT THESE TOO. Yo applesauce, you make a great replacer for egg. Plus, you taste really delicious and fall-y and GAH…I’m just obsessing now.

Do you know what’s even better than sinking your teeth into chewy bites of healthy carb energy to get your day started though? Aforementioned good-for-your-face-energy-packed-tastiness that is made, like the paleo pumpkin cake bars, in ONE BOWL. IE: You DO NOT have to unload the dishwasher 40 bazillion times just to get your sweet fixation. #winning

Side note: I honestly think that is the ONE thing that I truly dislike about being a food blogger. Not a morning goes by where I don’t say to myself “if I could just have ONE day where I don’t have to unload a dishwasher…”

#FirstWorldProblems.

Let’s just break it down for you, so you can TRULY see how easy it is to go from a sad person, with ZERO breakfast cookies in your hands, who’s inner-soul weeps to be grabbing at cookies by the HANDFUL –> A person who has more cookies than you can count. Because, realistically speaking, you should really just make 100 batches of them AT ONCE, due to the EZ-ness of them:

Step 1: Melt almond butter. Your microwave does this for you. Liiiike that means you did NO work.

Step 2: Add in ALL the ingredients to ONE bowl. Stir Stir Stir.

Step 3: Drop dough on pan and bake.

Step 4: MAKE IT RAIN COOKIES YO.

There might have been some toasty-roasting of the almonds. BUT, you could just be a smart cookie (see what I did there?) and buy pre-toasted almonds. #Champion.

I need to stop hash-tagging.

And you need to start your ovens.

Uhmmm, like, YESTERDAY.
