I made one of these last night and I’m eating it right now. I can’t believe how good it tastes. I used berry powder and dried fruit thinking it might not go so well with the nut butter, but it surprisingly does. I’m so glad you shared. I think this is going to become a part of my normal routine.
awesome! glad you loved it

I LOVE your blog!!! I was introduces by fitsugar.com and have been hooked ever since. I’ve been a fishaterian for a year and a half and my fiancé is a meat eater!! Once I finish preparing his meals I’m lost as to what to eat so I normally front load on whatever sides I’d prepared for him. I’m gaining weight as a result!! Carbs, carbs and more carbs!!!
I go to the gym faithful with no results. Hoping to get into really good shape so I can prepare my body for babies. With the recipes you offer and the workouts. I no longer feel like a helpless cause!!!
I’d love to make this cookie since we’re snowed in and am waiting for My Sun Warrior to arrive. Have you ever used Vega protein to make it? I was thinking the shake & go. Thoughts?
PS. I have my whole office hooked on TJ’s almond butter w/flaxseed. That’s a little bit of heaven!
hey girl! thanks so much for reading my blog
i have tried it with the vega, but it doesn’t taste quite as good as it does w the sun warrior.
hope you love it when you try it!
xoxo

Tried the breakfast cookie for the first time this morning and loved it! I thought I would have a hard time eating it because it is served cold but was hooked after 2 bites! As a busy mom, I love that I can make it the night before. Thanks for a great recipe.
whoo hoo! BEST make-ahead b-fast, especially when you know your morning is going to be crazy
I’m wondering if the breakfast cookie can be heated up? I’m starting my first day of a new school year tomorrow (I’m a high school English teacher), and this seems like the ideal make-ahead breakfast. I have one in the fridge right now. But, can I heat it up so that I’m not eating a cold breakfast?
yep, i’ve heated it up many times! enjoy
hope your first day at the new school goes well!

Hi Gina!
I LOVE your site >:) I enjoy your stories about your family and your recipes are great. I wanted to share my version of your breakfast cookie. The grocery store in town makes the most awesome oatmeal ranger cookies (I can’t buy them because I can’t stop eating them!) so I thought I would try to replicate the flavor using your breakfast cookie. My stir ins are: walnuts, dried cranberries (applejuice sweetened), unsweetened coconut flakes and cacao nibs. I have to say OMG, it was incredible.
Thanks for saving me from THOUSANDS of needless fat and calories (and guilt).
Have a great weekend.
Dana

[...] The Fitnessista breakfast cookie. Need I say more? I’d wanted to make it for a loooong time, but didn’t have any protein powder, which I thought was imperative. Thanks to a quick internet search that revealed Mama’s Weeds‘ tips, I’ve made it twice already. Once for dinner. It’s that good. Don’t skip out on the cocoa powder, unless you’re going to try to photograph it. It’s not pretty. But it’s dang delicious. [...]
