After trying muffins with grapefruits,i couldnt stop making bakes with freshly squeezed grapefruit juice and few zest...For a change i prepared this cookies instead of scones to enjoy for breakfast along with a cup of coffee or milk,in case if u r in hurry or lazy to prepare ur breakfast..I used wholewheat, rolled oats, barley flour,quinoa flour for making this cookies,thats the reason i named it as breakfast cookies as i used all the healthy flours for making this eggless cookies..They turned out super prefect also i have added few chopped chocolate chunks for my kids as they love chocolate chunks in their cookies,else its completely optional...Healthy cookies to enjoy without any hesitation to kick start ur day,we loved it..
1cup Whole wheat flour
1/2cup Rolled oats
1/4cup Barley flour
1/4cup Quinoa flour
1/4cup Grapefruit juice
1tsp Grapefruit zest
1/4cup Butter
1tsp Vanilla extract
1/2cup Sugar
1/2tsp Baking powder
1/2tsp Baking soda
100grms Chocolate bar (chopped as small chunks)
Preheat the oven to 350F, sieve the flours with baking soda and baking powder, add the rolled oats and chopped chocolate chunks to the flour keep aside..Beat together the butter and sugar until they turns soft, add the grapefruit zest,vanilla extract and grapefruit juice,mix everything well..Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and turn everything as a slightly sticky but stiff dough..Scoop out enough dough,arrange them over a greased baking sheet and bake for 15-20minutes until they turns golden brown..
Enjoy with a cup of tea for breakfast..
