These breakfast cookies provide rich chocolate and coffee flavor while also packing in protein and fiber thanks to prune puree and concentrate.
In a bowl, whisk together the oats, flour, cocoa, instant coffee, baking soda, and salt.
In a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream together the butter and peanut butter. Add the sugar and mix until the mixture is aerated, about 3 minutes. Mix in the puree and concentrate until incorporated. Briefly mix in eggs and vanilla.
Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the butter-sugar mixture. Fold in the chocolate chips. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour or up to 5 days.
Preheat the oven to 325F convection [165C] or 350F [180C] without convection. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
Portion chilled dough into approximately 40 g / 1.41 ounce portions. (An oiled ice cream scoop helps alleviate sticking.) Bake for 12 minutes or until set on top. Cool completely on baking sheets.
