Low Fat Low Sugar Oatmeal Apple Cookies
I am really loving having a toddler who loves to cook. We have really enjoyed getting in the kitchen together and experimenting with fun recipes. When she helps cook something, she is also more motivated to try it.
I found this recipe for Apple Breakfast Cookies from Melomeals and they seemed like the perfect afternoon snack for Aidalyn and me to make together. These are full of nutrients and low on sugar, so they are the perfect snack. I also loved that these contain a good amount of fiber. Sometimes toddlers are prone to constipation and this would be an easy treat to give them when they need help getting things moving along.
I cut the original recipe in half, because I wanted it all to be able to fit nicely in my food processor at one time. Making it fit in my food processor made it an easy activity for Aidalyn to help me with and easy clean up as well. She loves baking and I always like to find recipes that are easy enough for her to make.
She loved this recipe so much, which is saying a lot for my picky toddler. This would be a good option for a quick breakfast on the run. You could give these to your kids instead of purchased cereal oat bars from the store. For more protein, you could add a scoop of vanilla protein powder.
You could also add honey as your sweetener if you don’t use stevia or xylitol.


My favorite sugar free sweetener is here.
