What I love about GF Superfood Breakfast Cookies

These Gluten-Free Superfood Breakfast Cookies are truly a lifesaver on busy weekday mornings! Having nourishing, ready-to-go options on hand is important to me—I always aim to fuel my body with what it needs to feel its best each day. Lately, there’s been a lot of buzz about the power of seeds, and for good reason. These tiny superfoods are incredibly nutrient-dense, packed with essential vitamins and minerals like magnesium, vitamin E, phosphorus, and manganese. Not to mention, they’re also an excellent source of fibre, protein, and healthy fats.

One of my favourite ways to incorporate more seeds into my diet—without feeling like I’m eating bird food, as my dad likes to say—is through these delicious breakfast cookies. They’re gluten-free, grain-free, and loaded with wholesome ingredients that make you feel good from the inside out.

The texture is just right: soft and chewy with a satisfying crunch from the seeds, plus a hint of natural sweetness from maple syrup, raisins, and chocolate chips. And if raisins aren’t your thing, no worries—just swap them for more chocolate chips. After all, you can never go wrong with a little extra chocolate!

What you will need to make GF Superfood Breakfast Cookies

Here’s a list of ingredients that you will need:

• Butter – First off, you will need to use unsalted butter for this recipe.
• Almond butter – Secondly, you can use almond butter or peanut butter here for these cookies. I like almond butter!
• Maple syrup – Also, you can use either maple syrup or honey for these cookies.
• Egg – You will need one medium-sized egg for these cookies.
• Almond flour – There are no substitutions for almond flour as it is very unique in itself. It has a more coarse texture, so I don’t recommend substituting for gluten-free flour blends or anything else. I DO love baking with it though as it’s naturally gluten-free, grain-free and lower in carbs.
• Tapioca flour – Because almond flour is so coarse, the tapioca flour helps make the two combined into the perfect gluten-free flour blend for these cookies.
• Seeds – You will need ground flaxseeds, whether it’s golden flaxseed or brown flaxseed, both will work. You will also need chia seeds, hemp hearts (not hemp seeds), pumpkin seeds and sunflower seeds to make these seedy superfood cookies!
• Coconut – You can use shredded or desiccated coconut for this. I recommend unsweetened to reduce the amount of added sugar.
• Cocoa nibs – I love the crunch that cocoa nibs give to these cookies! They’re so good and so good for you! You can find these at your local health food store.
• Raisins – Raisins add a little chew and sweetness to the cookies. If you don’t like raisins, no problem! Just add more chocolate chips.
• Chocolate chips – Finally, what’s a cookie without a little chocolate? You can add more than the required amount in this recipe if you like a lot of chocolate. I wanted to keep these on the healthier side, so the recommended amount is more, to taste.
