Banana & Cranberry Breakfast Cookies

You heard that right, cookies for breakfast!!! This isn't your ordinary cookie though. These cookies are PACKED with nutrients that will give you some energy to get the day started. Also this recipe is dairy free and vegan!

It's basically baked oatmeal in cookie form. It has oat flour and chia seeds which gives these cookies fiber, protein, and omega 3 fatty acids. I did sneak in some dark chocolate and dried cranberries for added sweetness 😋

This is the PERFECT recipe for those of you who don't have time to make a full breakfast, or for those who typically skip breakfast. You can make a big batch of these in the beginning of the week and grab and go as you please.
