Satisfy Your Sweet Tooth With These Banana Oatmeal Breakfast Cookies

Loading up on a hefty dose of the white stuff isn't exactly the best way to start your morning. Baked goods like scones and quick breads tend to be high in sugar and fat, so if you're craving a homemade treat from the oven, bake up a batch of these oatmeal breakfast bites — they taste like cookies! They're sweetened with banana and a touch of maple syrup, but each chewy bite has only 2.6 grams of sugar and 0.3 grams of saturated fat.
