    There are so many things to love about these cookies. First off it’s a cookie for breakfast, what is not to love.  Made with almond butter that gives the Good Morning Breakfast Cookie great flavor and a load of healthy nutrients; high in potassium, calcium, manganese, and magnesium.  Monk fruit sweetener is a natural alternative to sugar that gives the cookie a sweet flavor but does not affect your blood sugar level.  There are so many add-ins that you can choose for your Good Morning Cookies for the whole family.  Chia seeds add an extra boost of protein and fiber, dried cranberries, pepitas, chopped almonds for crunch and dairy free mini chocolate chips.

      Can you tell me if this recipe uses old fashioned or quick oats? I used old fashioned, and couldn't get the dough to form into balls. I baked the dough in a 9" square pan for thirty minutes. Tastes great, but isn't cohesive and I ended up eating the mixture or of a bowl for breakfasts.
