How to cook deliciously - Oatmeal Almond Butter Breakfast Cookies
1. Stage
Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
2. Stage
Mix the dry ingredients: Combine the rolled oats, flours, wheat germ, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon together in a large mixing bowl. Set aside.
3. Stage
Make the cookie dough: In the bowl of a stand mixer using the paddle attachment (or using a hand mixer), mix the almond butter, brown sugar, and vanilla extract at low speed until smooth. With the mixer still on low, add the eggs, one at a time, to the bowl. Scrape down the bowl after each egg is blended into the batter. This helps the mixture to stay smooth and uniform. Add the water to the bowl and mix on low until the batter no longer looks soupy. Gradually add the flour mixture to the batter, stopping the mixer to scrape down the sides of the bowl. Mix again for one minute to make sure the flour is completely blended in. Gradually add the chocolate chips to the dough. Mix for 30 seconds more still on low speed.
