Go ahead, eat cookies for breakfast. Turns out that these oatmeal breakfast cookies from Skinny Taste are fairly healthy. Like in the paleo pancakes, overripe bananas replace the traditional high-fat wet ingredients. If you want to go even healthier, swap in raisins or dried cranberries for the chocolate chips.
