Instant Oatmeal Breakfast Cookies

Description

Be warned: These breakfast cookies are addictive. I took a basic oatmeal cookie recipe and pumped it up. It has whole wheat flour so it’s filling and excellent as a breakfast cookie. I gave a friend this recipe and her family can’t get enough. Incredible flavor!
