The “single lady” breakfast cookie was inspired by two things.
First was an email I received from a reader who asked if I could come up with a recipe similar to the Erin Baker Breakfast Cookies sold in stores.
Her email reminded me of an idea I’d written down years ago but had never actually gotten around to trying.
There’s a recipe on my blog for Snickerdoodle Oatmeal, and one day a blogger named Abbie (whose blog is sadly no longer in existence) recreated my oatmeal recipe in the form of a giant breakfast cookie and posted about it on her blog.
She combined all of the ingredients in a bowl, spread the batter on a plate, and let the extra moisture evaporate overnight so it turned into a soft and delicious no-bake snickerdoodle breakfast cookie.
Her idea was so brilliant, and I don’t know why I didn’t try it until now! For more healthy breakfast ideas, be sure to check out the link below:

I love the chocolate and peanut butter drizzle. We eat with our eyes first!
Hi, I can’t wait to try this! I was wondering if you covered it before refrigerating it? Thanks!
I made it for this morning and did not cover mine.
Completely up to you – I prefer the texture when uncovered, but you can do either.
Interesting recipe idea! I’m curious to know what the texture’s like. Is it like overnight oats, or more like a no-bake cookie?
Kind of in between the two. It is softer than a no bake cookie and not as chewy but also not as gummy as overnight oats.
This was delicious! I topped mine with cream cheese and pecans for a sticky bun one 🙂
Loving this recipe!
Can’t wait to try with my almond peanut butter!
This is AMAZING!!!!!!
This looks like so much fun. Pinned!
Oh my, this is going to be my breakfast tomorrow!!
