Pumpkin Breakfast Cookies
These lightly sweet pumpkin breakfast cookies are a great healthy breakfast on the go for those busy Autumn weekday mornings. Packed with pumpkin, spices, seeds, whole grains, healthy fats and being a generous size they are a well rounded breakfast option.
For a more decadent cookie swap the cranberries for chocolate chips and the pepitas for walnuts. It's still a healthy cookie but will feel more like a treat.
