We have decided to focus on pie and only pie this year but that doesn’t mean that we won’t share something we think is delicious! These breakfast cookies are a great way to start your day and are scrumptious as well. They are full of protein, fiber and good flavor. You can omit the egg if you like and use any kind of dried fruit that you prefer.
Happy Baking,
