  1. I too love breakfast cookies, but is there some way to make these NOT gluten free? My family and I are trying to eat only “real food” with no refined sugars or flour. You’ve got the sugar part covered by using honey, but I wouldn’t know where to begin to make this a regular cookie in the other respects. Would love to know if that’s possible, because these actually sound really good!

  2. I’m sort of sold… just need some extra protein in there and a little less starch. Ground flaxseeds? Almonds? Substituting coconut flour for some of the starch, and adding an egg?I’ve been making “cupcakes” for breakfast from ground hazelnuts, coco powder, honey, egg, sunflower seed butter, flaxseeds, coconut flour, baking powder and (sometimes) spices. They’re great, and relatively low sugar. Now, if only I had measured…

    1. That’s the beauty of this recipe, sub in what you want and make it your own. Yum! I personally used finely ground brown rice flour along with the quinoa flakes (the kind to make hot cereal) and finely shredded, organic coconut and coconut oil for the above recipe and it worked really well. My family also likes the addition of nuts and other goodies.If you choose to replace the blueberries with other add-ins, replace with about the same amount (1 cup to 1 1/2 cup) so there will be enough dough to hold the cookie together.

  3. These look so good. I am always looking for recipes that allow for a quick and easy breakfast. This is my first visit. I found you through Delicious Dishes.

  4. I think I’m going to add more chia seed slurry as egg sub in these because they were pretty crumbly when I just added the egg sub for 1 egg. Any other suggestions? Also do I just put them as balls without pressing them down on the cookie sheet?

    1. Sounds like a good plan. Yep, I just put them as ball on the baking sheet without pressing down. Another idea is to not remove the cookie from the baking sheet right away; allow them to “set up” for a couple of minutes before moving them to your cooling rack.

  5. I made these this morning, but mine didn’t flatten…they stayed balls?? They are cooked all the way through, but yours look much different. Any idea what I may have done wrong?

    1. I’m not sure what could have happened… The big thing to check on would be how you measured your starches/flours as it sounds as if there may not have been enough moisture or a bit too much flour. I measure flours buy stirring the flour, spooning into my measuring cup and leveling the measuring cup with a knife or other flat edge. Scooping the flours or other types of measuring styles can yield vastly different measurements. Also, be sure to measure the xanthan gum by leveling the measuring spoon with a straight edge. So little xanthan can create a HUGE change in the texture of a baked good that it really pays to get the right amount in a recipe. A bit too much xanthan gum could cause the cookies not to spread enough. I hope these ideas help.
