In the mood for something different for breakfast?
How about a cookie?
Soft, yet crunchy. Moist and delicious.
I loved the blueberry cornmeal cookies.
The cornmeal adds a nice crunch and the berries just a hint of tartness.
Blueberry Cornmeal Breakfast Cookies - Adapted from Out of the Box and into the Kitchen
{Print Recipe}
1 1/3 C wheat flour
2/3 C cornmeal
3 T honey
1 1/2 tsp. baking powder
1/4 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt
1/3 C applesauce
1/2 C buttermilk (or, 1 tsp. lemon juice + 1/2 C milk)
1 egg
1 1/2 tsp. lemon zest (zest of 1 lemon)
1 C frozen blueberries
Glaze (optional)
3-4 tsp. lemon juice
1 C powdered sugar
Mix together the dry ingredients in a large bowl.
Then, lightly grease two cookie sheets (or 12 muffin cups).
Drop dough by the spoonful onto the cookie sheet.
Bake at 450 for 13-15 minutes, until cookies are lightly browned and set.
If desired, make up the glaze by combining the lemon juice and powdered sugar.
Drizzle on top of cookies.
If you wish to make muffins, fill muffin tins 2/3 of the way full and bake a little longer,
until a toothpick comes out clean.
Enjoy!
Enjoy!

I definitely will make these this weekend--I love to bake for breakfast. They look delicious!
ReplyDeleteI was curious as to why they came out more like cookies when you mentioned them, now i know it was the applesauce! but its a great alternative!
ReplyDeleteI made these for breakfast this morning--very yummy and healthy! Mine didn't flatten out into cookies much, but stayed as round balls. No worries, we ate them anyway. :) Also, they seemed a little dry. Next time I might add a few more berries or a little butter for some moisture.
ReplyDeleteSnoWhite, thanks for the post. You gave me a great idea for Quasi Muffin Tops (you can see it on my blog). Keep up the great work and best of luck with your move!

I will have to try these yummy cookies out, as long as you promise not to tell the love of my life their is cornmeal in them;)
ReplyDeleteI made something similar to these a couple days ago! I mixed cornmeal, cinnamon, almond milk, honey, baking powder & blueberries together & fried them in coconut oil. They turned out like pancakes & were DELISH!! I would love to try your recipe, but I'll have to sub out the buttermilk & flour... maybe my gluten free baking mix & coconut milk would work... Thank you for sharing this yummy recipe!
