| Without Oats |
I’m always on the lookout for great gluten-free breakfasts for the families I cook for. I usually make muffins so I decided to change it up this week with breakfast cookies. These cookies came out amazing. It wouldn’t please every picky kid but adults love them.
I forgot to add the oats the first time I made them and they were just as delicious and less grainy (both pictures above).
I’d say I prefer without oats because the cookie holds together better. Add oats or not it’s up to you. Both are still as tasty. FIBER Packed!
