I don’t know what your mornings are like, but mine are crazy. On most days, I like to wake up before my kids to check emails, get my kids’ breakfast ready and enjoy a nice cup of tea quietly. Sometimes, I get a little lost in the peacefulness that before I know it, my three little friends are running down the stairs (usually knocking of one them down) and breakfast isn’t ready yet (darn Facebook!) I don’t like filling my kids up with junk or sugary cereals before they go to school (where they are expected to sit still and focus!) Days like this are the reason why I created these awesome breakfast cookies!

The kids think it’s pretty cool to eat cookies for breakfast and I know that they are actually eating wholesome ingredients, no refined sugar and they are gluten and dairy free too. But I will continue letting them think they are eating sugar filled cookies for breakfast. Shhhh….what they don’t know won’t hurt them!

These are also perfect for those picky eaters who don’t like eating breakfast, they can even eat these on the go! No excuse not to eat a well balanced breakfast!

I am a HUGE fan of Silk Almond Milk. I use it in my overnight oats, smoothies and so many of my recipes. When I heard that Silk has a new Cashew Milk available, I knew I had to try it! I love it! It’s so incredibly creamy (unlike skim milk) and only 25 calories per serving! I used the Unsweetened Cashew Milk and loved the taste. Get this, Silk Cashew Milk has 50% more calcium than cow’s milk! That’s huge. You need to try this. It’s tastes delicious right out of the carton, but it also tastes pretty amazing in these cookies!

    These cookies look so good! I think I’d enjoy them with a glass of the Cashew Milk too!
