These healthy, flavorful breakfast cookies use garam masala, a South Asian spice blend, which can vary from family to family. We use six spices: cardamom, cloves, black peppercorn, cumin, nutmeg and cinnamon. You can make your own blend or buy a premade mix. These cookies are packed with oats and nuts for plenty of fiber to keep you full.

  • Cream brown sugar, almond butter and butter in a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment on medium-high speed until the mixture has lightened in color and is fluffy.

  • Using a spatula, fold in oats, raisins, almonds and chocolate chips until thoroughly incorporated.

  • Using a 2 1/2-tablespoon cookie scoop, arrange scoops of batter 2 inches apart on the prepared sheets. Bake the cookies until lightly browned, 18 to 20 minutes. Let cool on the pans for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
