Notes

These cookies can be served warm or at room temperature. They make a great breakfast on the go or a healthy snack during the day. Pair them with a glass of milk or yogurt for added nutrition. Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days. If you want to keep them longer, you can freeze them for about two months.
