How To Make blueberry coconut pecan breakfast cookies

  • Step 1
    Preheat oven to 350. Either spray a cookie sheet with cooking spray, or line it with parchment paper (or tinfoil).
  • Step 2
    Combine oats, coconut, flax seeds, salt, pecans, and blueberries in a large bowl. Mix in mashed bananas, oil, agave nectar, and vanilla until well combined.
  • Step 3
    Press 2 tablespoons of mixture into whatever small cookie cutter shape you'd like (2 inch cutter works). Bake at 350 for 15-20 minutes, or until fragrant and golden.
  • Step 4
    NOTE: You can substitute sweetened coconut for unsweetened, but if doing so, OMIT AGAVE NECTAR. The sweetness from the coconut will be plenty to flavor the mixture.
