How to Make Peanut Butter Oatmeal Breakfast Cookies

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together 1 ½ cups rolled oats, ½ cup flaxseed meal, ½ cup whole wheat flour, ½ teaspoon baking soda, ½ teaspoon salt, and ½ cup brown sugar.
  3. In a separate bowl, cream together ½ cup peanut butter, ½ cup brown sugar, 1 large egg, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and ¼ cup vegetable oil until smooth.
  4. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined. The dough will be thick.
  5. Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving some space between each cookie.
  6. Gently flatten each cookie with a fork.
  7. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
  8. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  9. Serve warm with fresh fruit, yogurt, or a drizzle of honey. Enjoy!
