Cranberry Oatmeal Breakfast Cookies

Love not having to plan breakfast at the last minute! I make and freeze these, and when I'm ready for breakfast, I can thaw one of these in about 15 seconds in the microwave.

Step 1

Set butter out to soften to room temperature. Preheat oven to 350° F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

Using an electric mixer, cream together butter and sugar. Add in the egg, flour, protein powder, vanilla extract, and cinnamon. Stir to combine.

Step 3

Add in the applesauce and combine. Fold in the oats and cranberries.

Step 4

Scoop 1/4 cup scoops of the cookie dough onto the baking sheet. Flatten each cookie slightly.

Step 5

Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, until cookies are golden brown but still soft.

Step 6

Allow cookies to cool for 5 minutes on the baking sheet before transferring to a rack to cool completely.

Step 7

NOTE: Store cookies in an air tight container or wrap individually and freeze until ready to grab for a quick breakfast on the go.

Step 8

NOTE: Scoop sizes vary for different protein powder brands. Check the label to see weight of one scoop to determine how much to add or use a scale to measure 1.5 ounces.

Step 9

NOTE: Enjoy breakfast cookies as a snack. Consider making 24 smaller cookies instead of 12.
