What’s the best way to store these breakfast cookies?

I personally like to store my cookies in the fridge where they will stay good for a week or more but they will also keep for a couple days at room temperature or several months in the freezer.

Ingredient swap ideas:

One of the many thing that I love about breakfast cookies is how customizable they are! Truly it’s all about using what you have on hand. That said, here’s a couple possible ingredient substitutions:

Flour: The beauty of oat flour is you can easily make your own by blending rolled oatmeal in a high powdered blender or food processor. However if you don’t have that option you can also try swapping regular flour, almond flour, or one to one gluten free replacement flour. I wouldn’t recommend coconut flour as it is much more absorbent than other flours.
Nut Butter: Instead of peanut butter, feel free to use whatever nut butter you have in your pantry! Cashew butter, almond butter, tahini, sunbutter, so many options!
Banana: Instead of mashed banana, you can use 1/2 cup of applesauce.
Sweetener: Not a fan of maple syrup? You can also use honey!
Add-Ins: This is really up to you! I’m personally a fan of adding in chopped walnuts and pecans along with the chocolate chips but the options are endless! Other nuts, shredded coconut, and dried fruit would all be delicious.
