These Jumbo Breakfast Cookies Are the Best Way To Start Busy Mornings
And it’s the most popular recipe from the fall magazine.
Allrecipes Magazine
Fall mornings can be busy once you get into the swing of things. If you're anything like me, you don't have much of an appetite in the morning.
But, every now and then, I want something in my belly, so I opt for a small bite to eat: a pastry or a small waffle, maybe a banana bread muffin. Might I also recommend our popular jumbo breakfast cookies that offer a sweet boost and plenty of whole ingredients that make you feel great, bright and early? Plus, you can finish baking these cookies in under 20 minutes.
This recipe is one of our most popular from our new fall issue. You’ll find it featured in the Keepers section of the magazine, which highlights some of Allrecipes’ best recipes.
What makes a recipe a keeper? They’re tried-and-true, approachable, and most importantly, delicious. They’re some of our best recipes—and there is a reason these breakfast cookies check all those boxes.
Yes, Cookies for Breakfast
Cookies for breakfast might sound a little off. But these are no ordinary cookies. They are far from a chocolate chip cookie, but they bring the same level of enjoyment (especially when you just need a little sweetness in the morning).
These cookies use peanut butter rolled oats, raisins, and toasted oat cereal rings, like Cheerios. Of course, there are plenty of other ingredients that bring this cookie together, including butter, white sugar, flour, eggs, and vanilla extract.
There are only three steps, including preheating the oven: Mix your sugar and wet ingredients together, then add in your dry ingredients, rolled oats, raisins, and cereal of choice. Shape these into cookies and place them in the oven for about 12 to 15 minutes.
When they’re done, the cookies should look toasted and lightly brown around the edges. This is a great recipe to make when you want a quick, small breakfast or when you need a snack to quell the afternoon hunger. Homemade cookies can be stored for about a week at room temperature in an airtight container or in the refrigerator for up to one month.
Community Praise
The Allrecipes community always has a lot to say about a great recipe, and this one is no different. Make sure to check out the reviews section of the recipe for lots of great recommendations and suggestions.
“I made these for a brunch that included 8 moms and 19 kids—all I can say is that I came home without a crumb,” says recipe reviewer lizlovescake. “I did save a few at home and my husband LOVED them! I loved that I could make such a big cookie and the middle was actually baked through.”
“I made these for my daughter's family when she was too ill to bake or cook. They loved them and could grab them for breakfast and a snack,” says recipe reviewer northernlight. “They are a bigger family so the size of this recipe was perfect. Because all I had was Honey Nut Cheerios, I cut down on the sugar by a third. Many have made good suggestions about additions and subtractions...just go with what you like and they'll turn out great!”
