Peanut Butter Oatmeal Breakfast Cookies

Submitted by TexasToast R

"I changed up a spicy breakfast cookie recipe I had to create these. They contain flax, oatmeal and peanut butter for a delicious and filling start to the day. Plus the kids think it is so much fun to get to have cookies for breakfast! Great served with some fresh fruit."
