These No-Bake Breakfast Cookies Are Easy To Make, Healthy, Packed With Protein And Simply Delicious. They Can Be Whipped Up In Less Than 5 Minutes And Stored For Up To Two Weeks.

These breakfast cookies are an absolute favorite in my house. We make them ALL the time for a quick breakfast or snack, as well as chocolate peanut butter protein balls, no-bake energy balls, overnight oats and mini egg frittatas.


HEALTHY NO-BAKE COOKIES

Whenever I get a little lazy to make breakfast or if I know I’m going to have a hectic week ahead of me, I whip up these guys. These healthy no-bake cookies are gluten-free, refined-sugar free, dairy free and oh so delicious!

I eat 2 or three of them for breakfast (okay, sometimes it’s 4) and I always love snacking on them when I get that mid-afternoon dip. They are packed with protein so they really keep you feeling full and powered up.

The thing I love most about these breakfast cookies (other than the fact that they only take 5 minutes to make) is that you can change them up all the time! Sometimes I add only chocolate chips to them (I love dark chocolate chips). Other times I add some chopped almonds or some pecans. The mix-in options are endless – try adding in pumpkin seeds, dried cranberries, flaxseeds…you name it!

HOW MANY CALORIES ARE IN A BREAKFAST COOKIE?

If using the base ingredients for your breakfast cookies (peanut butter, honey, vanilla, chia seeds, oats), each breakfast cookie will have about 189 calories each. The calories will change if you add in any extras, like chocolate chips or almonds. Each serving is packed with protein and will keep you staying full and energized throughout the morning or afternoon!

HOW TO STORE BREAKFAST COOKIES

To store breakfast cookies, simply place in an airtight container or zip top bag and keep in the fridge. The cookies will keep for up to 2 weeks if stored properly in the fridge.
CAN YOU FREEZE BREAKFAST COOKIES?

Yes, you can freeze these healthy breakfast cookies. I sometimes double the batch and stick half in the freezer to have on hand. Simply store in a freezer-friendly container or bag for up to 3 months. Just make sure you let the breakfast cookies set in the fridge first prior to adding to your freezer container. This will ensure they don’t stick together!
