Vanilla Pudding Oat Cakes (Breakfast Cookies)

Preheat oven to 350°

Combine:
1/2 c flour
1/2 c oats (instant or regular)
1 sm. package of instant vanilla pudding (I used sugar free)
2 tbs wheat germ (if desired)

Combine
1/2 c. canned pumpkin (or applesauce or mashed banana)
1/2 c brown sugar (I used Splenda blend)
1 tsp cinnamon
I tsp baking soda
2 tbs water
2 beaten eggs

Combine both mixes together and then add one or all of the following:

1/2 c of dried fruit (cranberries, raisins or whatever)
1/2 c mini chocolate chips
1/2 c nuts (I used hazelnuts)

Sprinkle with additional sugar if you like them a little sweeter.

Drop into 12 cookies on cookie sheet and cook for 12-15 minutes.

I put them in bags of two in the freezer and they freeze and thaw well!
