  3. I made a double batch of these on last week because I knew my family would LOVE them. What I did not anticipate was having to make another double batch 6 days later because the cookies were gone and they were begging for more!!! We eat them for a quick breakfast, snacks…obviously whenever we’re hungry!! Now a family favorite!

  5. These might be the BEST things I’ve ever put in my mouth. I had to share on Facebook! Thanks! 🙂
    And my daughter thinks it’s very special to have cookies for breakfast…I think it’s pretty special too!

  6. I made these over the weekend. They are fabulous! I added my own “secret ingredient”…ground nutmeg, just don’t tell anyone else …lol. Love this site!

  8. Help! Can you leave these at room temp in an airtight container or do they have to stay in the frig? I make the individual oatmeal muffins once a week and wonder the same about those?

  11. Great cookie! Thanks for all the nutritional info! I made these to recipe and liked them then next batch (the bananas couldn’t ripen fast enough!) substituted coconut oil for butter, coconut sugar (a little less sweet) and almond flour for the white stuff then threw in almonds, coconut & dried cranberries, halved the chocolate and added cinnamon… amazing! These really fill you up but let you think you’re having a treat

  12. I wasn’t sure my kids would eat these…but they devoured them all in a few days! Now they won’t eat any of our bananas because they’re waiting for them to ripen so we can make more. They LOVED the idea of “cookies” for breakfast and have really helped when I had to send sleepyheads out the door in a hurry! Thanks!

  14. Hi 🙂
    I’ve been looking for breakfast cookies for so long. I’m really happy I found your recipe. I was wondering how I could ajust the recipe if I want to change the mix banana/chocolate chips for orange/cranberry, or blueberry/lemon, blueberry/coconut, etc, since the bananas give texture. Do you have an idea?!
    Thanks a lot !

  16. We’re gluten free, so I replaced the white flour with a processed white starch (arrowroot, but I’m sure potato would be fine) and the wheat flour with the first whole grain flour I grabbed (sorghum) and they turned out fine. Soft and cakey. They taste more like banana than anything else.

  17. So delicious. Perfect solution for my picky kids who don’t love breakfast. They gobbled them up for bkfst AND snack. My husband also loved them even though I cut the sugar to a scant 1/3 cup they were still delicious!

  18. I make these on a bi weekly basis as my family loves them. I make at least a double or a triple batch absolutely perfect. I love how I can change some of the ingredients up yet they always turn out so good. Thank you for a perfect recipe.
