Breakfast Cookies

I made these low fat high fiber cookies to eat during my gallbladder attacks. They are scrumptious. 


¾ cup brown sugar
½ cup sugar
1 cup non-fat yogurt
¾ cup applesauce
2 tsp vanilla
1 cup unbleached flour
½ cup rye flour or wheat flour
1 tsp baking soda
¼ cup flax seed
¼ cup wheat germ
2 ½ cups quick cook oats
¾ cups dried fruit (like raisins or cranberries)
½ cup chopped nuts (like walnuts, pecans, etc.)
¼ cup high fiber cereal, crushed (like grape nuts)

In a large mixing bowl, combine the sugars, yogurt, applesauce, and vanilla. Stir together until completely combined. In a medium mixing bowl, stir together the flours, soda, flax seed, and wheat germ. Pour flour mixture into liquid mixture and stir until combined. Stir in oats. Stir in dried fruit, nuts, and cereal.

Drop by rounded tablespoon onto a cookie sheet lightly sprayed with a non-stick cooking spray. Bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes. Remove from cookie sheet immediately after baking..

  1. I need to make these again. They are so handy to have in the freezer for an early morning quick breakfast. You should try them too!
