Welcome to the third annual #BrunchWeek hosted by Terri from Love and Confections and Shaina from Take A Bite Out Of Boca. We are so excited to have you join us this year! Celebrate Brunch with us this week as we prepare for Mother’s Day. 30 Bloggers from around the country will showcase their best brunch dishes, from cocktails to casseroles, breakfast breads, sandwiches and salads – there is something for everyone!
These Flourless Oatmeal Coconut Breakfast Cookies are bursting with banana, oats, vanilla, coconut, cacao nibs and walnuts. How could so much flavor be packed into one tiny cookie?
These are the ultimate #BrunchWeek cookies, using ingredients from four of our #Brunchweek sponsors — Bob’s Red Mill, Nielsen-Massey, Pacari Chocolate and California Walnuts. Flourless Oatmeal Coconut Breakfast Cookies are great for on-the-go breakfast or a mid-afternoon snack, or they make a delicious addition to your brunch dessert table. Because we all know brunch requires dessert. Obviously!
What happens when you throw a bajillion ingredients into a bowl, stir ’em together, plop ’em onto a Silpat baking mat and bake ’em? You get soft, chewy, super awesome cookies that won’t last more than a day or so on the counter. Experiments in the kitchen are always so much fun, especially if they turn out like these Flourless Oatmeal Coconut Breakfast Cookies!
I brought a few of these to my spin class on a Sunday morning to give to the ladies after class (they are healthy!) and everyone loved them. What’s not to love about a healthy cookie that you can eat for breakfast or brunch?! If there’s one thing I love, it’s bringing my sweet treats to my friends and family for them to enjoy. It brings a smile to my face to see others take that first bite into something delicious. It makes me happy to make others happy — and dessert seems to do the trick!
Like I said, these Flourless Oatmeal Coconut Breakfast Cookies are the ultimate #Brunchweek cookie, making them totally appropriate to share on our last day. It’s been so much fun sharing yummy brunch ideas with you all week! I hope you’re all inspired to host your own brunch soon — and I hope you’ll use our recipes!
