Chocolate Bacon Breakfast Cookies

On request from my hubby I tried another version of my Breakfast Cookies… this time with Chocolate and Bacon.

Manly Breakfast Cookies!!

Set oven to 450 F

Ingredients:

  2 slices of Bacon cooked very crispy (almost burnt) & diced

  1/2 cup Levian (Sourdough Starter)

  1/2 cup Quick Oats

  2 Tbl Honey

  2 Tbl Penzeys Natural High Fat Cocoa (a good Cocoa powder)

  1 Tbl Sugar

  1/2 tsp Cinnamon

  1/2 tsp Vanilla Extract

  1/4 tsp Salt

  1/4 tsp Baking Soda (wait until the last minute to add this)

I mixed up all but the Baking Soda, let the mixture sit for a few minutes while the oven was warming.  Once the oven was up to temp I added the Baking Soda, let the batter rise (it takes about a minute to double in size).

I placed 8 dollops of batter onto a piece of parchment paper, popped it into the oven, watched & waited… 10 minutes later I removed my "cookies"… I put the word cookies in quotes because these are softer than a typical soft-baked cookie, and not nearly as sweet, much more suited to be a breakfast item than a traditional cookie.

Makes eight 3" diameter "cookies" (two healthy servings)...
