Pumpkin Apple Breakfast Cookies & One of My Favorite Places

Recipe by Catching Seeds

These cookies are chewy, reminiscent of baked oatmeal, and healthy enough for breakfast.

Ingredients

• 1 cup pumpkin or squash puree
• 1 cup applesauce
• 2 tablespoons maple syrup
• 2 tablespoons flax seed meal
• ¼ teaspoon salt
• ¼ teaspoon cinnamon
• ⅛ teaspoon nutmeg
• 1½ cup rolled oats
• ¼ cup chopped Walnuts
• ¼ cup dried cranberries ((I use a fruit sweetened brand))
• 1 cup finely diced apple

Method

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and prep two cookie sheets with cooking spray.
2. In a large bowl combine the pumpkin puree, applesauce, maple syrup, flax, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Fold in the oats, walnuts, cranberries, and diced apple.
3. Using a 1/4 cup scoop drop cookies onto the prepared cookie sheets about 1 inch apart. Using your fingers flatten and shape the cookies into uniform circles. Bake for 20 minutes, allow to cool and serve.
