Pumpkin Spice Chia Breakfast Cookies
By Isabel Smith, MS, RD, CDN
I find that more and more of my clients and colleagues are discussing breakfast cookies because they’re such a great on-the-go option. These ones are loaded with healthy fat and protein to help start your day off in a balanced and energized way. I kept the added sugar minimal and instead used more peanut butter to bind the cookies because it’s more satisfying and filling.

- 1 tsp pumpkin spice seasoning
- 2 Tbsp maple syrup
