Blueberry Breakfast Cookies my friends. Yes, it’s legit – cookies for breakfast.

Seriously THIS is how you should start your morning, with cookies. Ever since our cherry chocolate breakfast cookies I realized there should be more of these delicious treats in the world.

Cookies for breakfast has a way of making you feel naughty but accomplished at the same time. I’m ok with this naughty-but-nice approach to the first meal of the day.

Isn’t that what we all strive for as adults these days? A tasty meal that qualifies as a treat but it’s not really bad for us? Even if we have to trick ourselves into eating healthier, that’s ok.

Fall in Love with Breakfast Cookies

  • Healthy and guilt free! Yeahhh Momma.
  • Only 10 ingredients to make these chewy cookie treats.
  • Mix & Match with whatever fruits and nuts you like.
  • Bite-Sized – Make these cookies large or small for the little ones.

It’s ok to feed your kids cookies that are healthy for them, what they don’t know … after all.

I guess it’s not just for adults. Maybe we all just need all healthy things made into cookie form for us to eat them.

Actually, that’s not a bad idea.

Working from home can be rough. I feel snacky so I eat potato chips, I want something sweet I make brownies … and that my friends, is my life.

Not to mention there have been plenty of mornings I find myself waiting for the kettle to boil and mindlessly grab a sliver of brownie or a half of a double chocolate chip cookie.

That’s where these healthy blueberry breakfast cookies come into play. My naughty habit is satiated, but in a much healthier way.

Healthy Blueberry Breakfast Cookie Options

  • No-Bake –  Don’t feel like baking? There is nothing that actually needs to be baked for these cookies. I personally like making them in cookie form and allowing the ingredients to bind together.  You decide!
  • Nut Butter – Use any smooth nut butter of your choice! I used sunflower butter, as long as it’s smooth and not the runny natural peanut butter you are golden!
  • Mix it up – Try our Chocolate Cherry Breakfast Cookies for a change in tasty mix-ins.

Whether you’re trying to avoid grabbing a brownie for breakfast, or you need your child to eat something nutritious without a fight – these Healthy Blueberry Breakfast Cookies are the perfect pick!

    Could you use fresh or frozen blueberries instead of dried?

      We haven’t tried fresh or frozen berries with this recipe. I don’t see why it wouldn’t work but the extra moisture from the fresh blueberries might just be a bit more messy to eat but should still taste good.
