This recipe makes two cookies, which are good as a complete breakfast, or you can have one cookie with a smoothie. It doubles or triples easily if you want to make a big batch to have on hand for grab-and-go breakfasts.

Ingredients

1/2 cup rolled oats
1 Tbsp whole grain flour
1/2 tsp baking powder
1-2 Tbsp unrefined sugar
1/2 tsp pumpkin pie spice, or ground cinnamon, optional
1/4 cup applesauce, plus more as needed
2 Tbsp raisins, dried cranberries, or vegan chocolate chips

Instructions

In a medium bowl, stir together the oats, flour, baking powder, sugar, and pumpkin pie spice (if using). Stir in the applesauce until thoroughly combined. Add another 1 to 2 tablespoons of applesauce if the mixture looks too dry (this will depend on the type of oats used). Shape the mixture into 2 cookies.
Put on a microwave-safe plate and heat on high power for 90 seconds. Alternatively, bake on a small tray in a 350°F oven or toaster oven for 15 minutes.
Let cool slightly before eating.
