Start your day of with a yummy cookie!! Not just any cookie, a healthy date cookie with avocados, oats, cinnamon, and yogurt. You know that sounds good, and it is. Cookies are my favorite food, so this delicious healthy treat is just what I need to get my cookie fix and fill my morning with a wholesome breakfast. This recipe is great for breakfast on the run. You make a batch at the beginning of the week and you will have enough cookies to last you a few days. Just grab and go!
Ingredients
3 cups of old fashion oats
1 1/2 cup flour ( you can use whole wheat for more whole grain goodness)
4 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
1 ripe avocado, mashed
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/3 cup olive oil
1 cup plain low fat yogurt
2 eggs
2 cups of chopped dates (12 oz)
In a bowl mix oats, flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt.
In a separate bowl use a blender to mix the avocado, oil, and sugar together. Then add the yogurt and eggs.
Combine the wet and dry mixture.
Take your dates. I found mine at Walmart in the produce section (by the nuts and seeds).
Chop the dates into tiny pieces
Add the dates into your batter. Using a 1/4 cup measure scoop the batter onto a cookie sheet 2 inches apart.
Bake for 18-22 minutes or until golden brown.
Enjoy!
