Ingredients
  

Dry Ingredients
  • 1.5 cups rolled oats
  • 0.5 cup oat flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • a pinch salt
Wet Ingredients
  • 1 egg
  • 0.5 cup blended cottage cheese
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup
  • 2 tablespoons oil

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat the oven to 180°C and prepare a baking tray with parchment paper.
  2. In a bowl, combine rolled oats, oat flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Stir well to evenly distribute the dry ingredients and spices.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg, blended cottage cheese, maple syrup, oil, and vanilla until smooth and creamy.
  4. Gradually mix the wet ingredients into the dry mixture, stirring just until combined. Fold in the finely diced apple, ensuring even distribution throughout the dough.
  5. Scoop small portions onto the baking tray, leaving space between each cookie.
  6. Bake until the cookies are lightly golden and set. Allow them to cool slightly before enjoying.

Notes

Tips for perfect breakfast cookies: Dice apples finely for even baking, do not overmix to keep cookies tender, blend cottage cheese smoothly for a soft texture, and bake just until set to prevent dryness.
