Most Delicious and Healthy Breakfast for the Kids-Nutella Cookies with Banana Shake

My kids are really picky. Whenever I serve them some green vegetables they make funny faces and come-up with some excuse to not eat those vegetables. Hence, I keep innovating the dishes which are healthy yet tasty so my kids get their daily diet of protein, calcium and fat.

Few years back, my friend told me about this amazingly delicious recipe of nutella cookies. This recipe takes about 15 minutes to cook and you need a prep time of 10 minutes. You can store these cookies for about 1 week and you can serve them to your kids, guests etc. Believe it, they all will love it!!

Let’s not waste any more time and let’s start cooking this amazing breakfast recipe.

Ingredients-

1 ½ cups of all-purpose flour
1 cup of chocolate chips
2 medium eggs
¼ cup of sugar
¼ cup of demerara sugar (brown sugar)
¾ cup of nutella
300 grams of unsalted butter (at room temperature)
2 glasses of shakes of cinnamon
½ tbsp. of baking soda
¼ tbsp. of baking powder
¼ tbsp. fleur de sel
¼ sugar (for rolling)

Cooking method-

1.       Pre-heat the oven to 350 degrees. Line two baking sheets with silicon mats.

2.       Take a big bowl and whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt and cinnamon shake. Try the cut and fold method for the whisking.

3.       In a separate small bowl, beat the butter until smooth and creamy. Add nutella and beat it for another minute or so. Now add demerara sugar and normal sugar, beat them for about 4 minutes and then finally add the egg and beat that for 1 minute. Give this mixture a resting time of 3 minutes.

4.       Add this mixture to the other big bowl with fleur de sel and chocolate chips. This whole mixture should look like a mushy-soft dough.

5.       Now make a small balls out of this dough and roll them either by your palm or by the rolling pin. Do not put pressure while rolling them should be thick and small. You can also use the sugar to coat them after rolling.

6.       Place the cookies on the baking sheets and bake them for about 10 minutes. Check if they are not done, bake them for 2 more minutes.



7.       The cookies will be soft right from the oven, give them some time to rest.

8.       You can also make a nutella cookie sandwich like I made in the picture.

9.       Serve them with a chilled banana shake. It will give your kids the required energy punch of the morning!


I hope you all will like this recipe. I would really love to hear from you and please also write if you have some alternations to suggest for this recipe. Till then-stay healthy, stay happy!!
