HEALTHY BREAKFAST COOKIES AND BARS - FIBER, PROTEIN, AND FRUIT!



Healthy Breakfast Cookies and Bars - Fiber, Protein, and Fruit! image

This recipe makes great cookies and even better bars. In its original form, following the recipe, it has a nice mild balance of oatmeal and apple flavours. Three cookies is one full serving of whole grains, and a full serving of fruit. It keeps at least a week without getting dried out (and then my four year old inhaled the last bar). I'm planning to try it again with cut up dried apricots and toasted sesame seeds. Try it out! (Found it in the Toronto daily "24 Hours" paper, October 3, 2005)

  • Add some sweetness, but don't go overboard. A little bit of sweetness can help to make your breakfast bars more enjoyable, but too much sugar can be unhealthy. Use natural sweeteners like honey, maple syrup, or agave nectar instead of refined sugar.
  • Experiment with different flavors. There are endless possibilities when it comes to flavoring your breakfast bars. Try adding spices, extracts, or even chocolate chips to create a unique and delicious snack.
