Cookies for breakfast? Is there any answer besides a loud YES to answer that? These quick and healthy breakfast cookies are not only naturally gluten free and vegan, but are truly delicious!!
How does your morning routine go? Does it involve enjoying a leisurely cup of coffee and reading the paper? Yeah, that’s what my dreams are made of! My morning routine usually involves me rushing around, trying to find an ‘acceptable for public’ outfit (I need some new clothes, though don’t we all?) and trying to get Ben all ready for the day, and then trying to find something to eat.
And while I’d love to say that as a food blogger I wake up every morning and whip together a fabulous breakfast, truth is, that is far from the truth! Most days my fridge looks bleak at best with a few leftovers or things that require a little more preparation than I have time for in my 2.5 seconds before I need to be out of the house or else I’ll be late.
That’s where these delicious breakfast cookies come in. They’re not only super easy to make, but they’re the perfect on-the-go breakfast! I just grab one and eat it on my way to work (a lot easier to eat than a bowl of oatmeal…in the car…just trust me on this!)
The base of these amazing cookies is bananas! YAY! Fruit for breakfast! Then you mix in other delicious ingredients like sunflower seeds and chocolate chips, bake and then voila! Breakfast Cookies!

I’ve been trying to set my outfits out the night before to save myself from morning panic, but I never seem to get around to it! Except for this morning. I’m going to a jail with a class and we were told – don’t wear a suit, just dress business casual. Which led to me going – WHAT IS BUSINESS CASUAL?! Because in law school, you pretty much just always kick it in a suit. Anyhoo, this nice breakfast cookie would be perfect for my typically rushed mornings!
Sweetphi says
That’s a really great idea to set your outfits out…why have I not tried this? lol! Hope everything at the jail went well, and thank you for your lovely comment about the breakfast cookies 🙂

Picture perfect mornings only exist on Sundays in our house :). The rest of the week I too am struggling to get going and usually grab a quick breakfast to eat on the go. I would feel so much better holding one of your cookies in my hand. They look incredible!
Sweetphi says
Thank you so much for you comment about the breakfast cookies, they truly are an amazing quick breakfast for on the go!

These look and sound delicious! Love all the nutritious ingredients. I find that foods like this are great to throw in the diaper bag to feed my toddler as we are out and about too. So much better than a granola bar or something store bought!
Sweetphi says
These would be perfect for on the go, and definitely better than something store bought! Thank you so much for your lovely comment!

These look like such a delicious timesaver! And I would love to have cookies for breakfast!!
Sweetphi says
Girl, they’re a total time saver in the mornings when I’m running around, I actually had one this morning, just took it out of the freezer before getting ready, and then it was all good to eat on my way to work 🙂
Diana says
This cookie looks so delish! Think I’ll try it with raisins . Yumm!
Sweetphi says
They would be amazing with raisins! YUM!
Wendy says
Hi, I’m definitely going to make these, and am wondering if you have a rec to sub for sunflowers seeds (apparently I’m not supposed to eat them!) Maybe a nut??
Sweetphi says
Hi – great question, i think you could use any nut – like chopped up peanuts, pecans, walnut or almonds would work great in this recipe! I think you’ll love it. Or you could omit the additional nuts and they’d be fine too (one time I just missed that step when I was preparing them and they came out good too!)
Helen Becerra says
Just made these for the week to have as an “I’m starving but lunch is 2 hours away” snack at work. They were so quick and easy to make and made my kitchen smell amazing! They are so good, I honestly didn’t think they would come out as flavorful as they did! Love them and thank you so much for the recipe
Sweetphi says
Thank you so much for your lovely comment, so happy to hear you enjoyed this recipe!
