Growing up, it was one of our greatest wishes that cookies be allowed as a breakfast food. Alas, our parents were never quite convinced. Luckily, these days we get to eat whatever we want in the A.M. and so we’ve finally fulfilled this lifelong dream: Breakfast Cookies. Maple Bacon Breakfast Cookies, to be exact. Because bacon for breakfast is a no-brainer.
These oat filled cookies are chewy and sweet and filled with chopped bacon, and topped with a little more for good measure. They’re also drizzled with a sweet maple glaze that plays off of the smoky flavor of the bacon while contrasting with the saltiness. They’re an exercise in yin and yang, you might say, and it works so very well.
Are they the healthiest breakfast around? Nah. But neither are cinnamon rolls, and those are certainly worth consuming every once in a while. These are no different. They’re a special breakfast treat with an outstanding combination of flavors and a soft, chewy crumb. Long story short, our breakfast wish came true.
