These vegan breakfast cookies have just the right amount of sweetness and wholesome goodness to get your day started right. Add your favorite dried fruit, such as dried blueberries, to add pops of flavor in every bite!

I love having these vegan breakfast cookies around for a quick breakfast treat. But to be honest, you don’t have to serve them only at breakfast. They’re delicious all day long!

These cookies are infused with oats, seeds, dried berries, and peanut butter. Not only are they low in sugar, but they’re also gluten-free as well!

How to Make Vegan Breakfast Cookies

You can find the full printable recipe, including ingredient quantities, below. But first, here are some explanations of ingredients and steps to help you make this recipe perfect every time.

  9. Flatten them slightly with the bottom of a glass. Set them 1 inch apart on the prepared baking sheet.
  10. Bake for 14 to 16 minutes until golden brown on the edges, but still tender in the middle. Leave the cookies on the pan for up to 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Frequently-Asked Questions

Can you use instant oats?

I prefer using old-fashioned oats because it makes the cookies chewier. If you want to make these cookies using instant oats, try increasing the quantity by 1/2 cup.

Why are they called breakfast cookies?

Because they’re made with oats, minimal sugar, peanut butter, and dried fruit, these cookies are similar to granola, another favorite breakfast treat. You can serve them any time of day, but having a cookie for breakfast is always a fun idea!
