Dried wild blueberries are the perfect addition to these oatmeal breakfast cookies, but you can swap them out for any dried fruit or even mini allergy-friendly semi-sweet chocolate chips.
To make these breakfast cookies peanut-free, substitute sunflower seed butter for nut butters such as peanut or almond butter and avoid adding chopped nuts.
These breakfast cookies are wholesome, protein—and fiber-rich. To boost the protein a little more, add a scoop of Unflavored Vital Proteins Collagen Peptides to the mix. They have 5 grams of protein each without the added peptides.
