I used a scoop to make them, so they were rounder than cookies usually are. My boys thanked me for breakfast.
Here's how to make them:
Set the oven at 350 degrees. Bake for 12 minutes or if you like crispy cookies, bake for 15 minutes. They do not spread much, but will get more puffy and golden around the edges.
I used a mixer and just dumped all the ingredients together. If you are not using a mixer, combine the dry ingredients in one mixing bowl, the wet ingredients in another and mix them for the end results.
*The dried cherries can be substituted for other dried fruit.

I used to make a breakfast cookie when my kids were small but can't find the recipe right now. All I remember is oats and raisins.

I love using a little spoonful in my morning oatmeal rather than butter. It's delicious in my homemade granola and it is amazing for stir-frying! Plus on TT their is an awesome coconut shrimp recipe.
