Banana Breakfast Cookies

Cookies for breakfast?? Yes! Bretta, this recipe might even help reform your "cereal killer"!

In addition to the novelty of such a meal, it's breakfast you can make the night before! Perfect for mornings when you need all the help you can get (which is, in my case, every morning).

1/3 cup peanut butter (natural style) or almond butter

1/3 cup applesauce

1/2 tsp vanilla extract

3 tbsp. honey

2/3 cup whole wheat flour
