"This is a recipe I created out of a need for a healthy low fat, high fiber breakfast option. This "cookie" is not very sweet. You can add more sugar if desired. Makes a great breakfast with a piece of fruit."

  1. Used all egg white and Splenda Brown for the sugar. I made a half recipe and smaller in size so ended up with 14 cookies that are quite nice. As said, they aren't sweet but I don't think they really need to be any sweeter as they are meant for breakfast and not a sweet snack. Loved the pineapple, carrot and raisin combo. Mine came out on the soft and chewy side :D
     
  2. I used 2 eggs. Next time I may try them smaller. And probably use 1 cup of all purpose flour and reduce by 1/2 cup the whole wheat flour. My son didn't like them probably because they're too healthy. But they're filling. I baked them 20 minutes and they were ready. Thanks healthycook :) Made for PAC Fall 2011
     
  3. These cookies were good, but their texture is more muffin-like. I made half of the batter, tasted them and then added another 1/4c. of brown sugar to the other half of the batter. If I make these again I will definitely add more sugar!
     
  4. Used vanilla yogurt & golden raisins, then followed the recipe on down to the end, for a very tasty breakfast (AND lunch!) treat! Something like the flavor of carrot cake, but with a new dimension, what with the addition of wheat flour & bran! Thanks for sharing! [Made & reviewed for one of my adoptees in this Spring's Pick-A-Chef]
     
  5. These breakfast cookies smelt wonderful while baking, but after only 25 minutes in the oven the bottoms of these cookies had burnt. All in all, for a healthy/high fiber breakfast cookie this was fairly good. I'm not certain if I will make again, but I am definately glad that I tried them. Thanks for sharing this recipe that you personally created yourself.
