Chocolate Chip Breakfast Cookies

I have been tweaking a recipe for breakfast cookies for a couple weeks and telling lots of people about it!  There are a variety of flavors that can be made but this one is our favorite and is ready to share!

Ingredients

2 1/2 cups old fashioned oats
3/4 cup ground oatmeal
1/4 cup coconut or raw sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup plus 1 Tablespoon almond milk
1/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon maple syrup
1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce
1 egg or flax egg (1 Tablespoon ground flax mixed with 3 Tablespoons water)
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/2 cup sunbutter or peanut butter
1 cup dairy free chocolate ships (we prefer dark)

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Add all dry ingredients to large bowl and stir.  Add the remaining ingredients and mix.
Use a 1/4  cup scoop to scoop batter onto parchment paper and pat down into cookie shape.
Bake for 15 minutes until slightly browned. 
Cool completely before eating.
Enjoy cookies for breakfast!
