Erin Baker's -- Breakfast Cookies, Homestyle Granola, Breakfast Cookie Minis and Organic Brownie Bites are handcrafted and baked to order, promising homemade freshness and flavor! (Review and Giveaway)

Closed.  And, the winner is:  Colleen M.



The Original Breakfast Cookie is something you can feel good about eating. Baked fresh with heart-healthy whole grains and sweetened with fruit puree, our cookies combine the flavors we all love with a heartiness that satisfies for hours. Packed with protein, antioxidants, fiber and complex carbohydrates, it is a healthy and delicious way to start your day. Every Breakfast Cookie is handcrafted in our own bakery using the finest ingredients available. You can taste the exceptional quality in each bite. Taste one, or better yet, taste them all!


I was recently sent a sampler kit to try out a handful of Erin Baker's treats, direct from her bakery.  Included in my sampler kit was her famous Breakfast Cookies and brownie bites to try out..  Being a chocolate lover, I grabbed for the brownie first!  Wow, it was so soft and moist -- like it was baked fresh for me that day!  And, the chocolate used was of high quality. You could tell that the bakers at Erin Baker's put a lot of pride into their work, and it shows with their product line.  Even though it wasn't breakfast when I received the package of baked goods, I still opted to try the Pumpkin Spice breakfast cookie.  I wanted to see if it really tasted like pumpkin spice, or if they just used spices to achieve a pumpkin flavor.  I ended up toasting this cookie prior to eating, and think this brought out the flavor of the pumpkin even more.  Just look at the nutritional facts and ingredients of this popular, low-calorie breakfast cookie:





Toaster Friendly

Whole Grain Oats, Unbleached Wheat Flour (unbleached wheat flour, niacin, reduced iron, thiamin mononitrate, riboflavin, folic acid), Prune Puree, Organic Evaporated Cane Juice, Pumpkin Puree, Brown Rice Syrup, Expeller Pressed Canola Oil, Chicory Extract, Water, Molasses,Pumpkin Pie Spice, Baking Soda, Pure Vanilla Extract, Dried Egg Whites, Sea Salt, Soy Lecithin, Aluminum-Free Baking Powder, Cinnamon.


Now, how can you feel bad eating such a sweet treat?  I sure didn't!  Again, I couldn't believe how much you could taste the pumpkin flavor in this cookie.  It really did satisfy my sweet tooth.

Over the next few days, I had the remaining samples from the sampler kit I was sent, and each and every time, I fell in love with the flavor I was eating.  So, in the end, besides the brownies (which I loved because of the chocolate flavor), I couldn't decide on a favorite breakfast cookie from Erin Baker's.  Each cookie brought their own unique flavor that made you crave more, even though it gets you full after just a few bites. If you get the chance t try out these breakfast cookies for yourself, I highly suggest warming them in the microwave for a few seconds or toasting them.  They taste great warmed up!


In addition to their breakfast cookie line and brownie bites, Erin Baker's also offers homemade granola that is to die for.  You can either have it as a cereal or put in a bag and munch on when you are on the go!

About Erin Baker:
OUR MISSION
To Handcraft and Bake to Order in Small Batches
with Simple, Wholesome Ingredients…
Promising Homemade Freshness, Flavor and Quality


I started baking & selling cookies at 9 years old, and I loved it so much that I made it my life's work…and yes my last name really is "Baker"!

It all began in 1994 when I rented the 4-H kitchen at the Whidbey Island Fairgrounds to bake my way to a better life. Inspired by my mom's healthy baking and armed with a KitchenAid mixer, I created a revolutionary new way to serve breakfast…the Breakfast Cookie was born!

For the last seventeen years, oats, fruit & honey have been the staple ingredients in my bakery, making us unique in our efforts to provide healthier food products. I take great pride in baking products with whole food ingredients which provide sustained energy and optimal nutrition. Over the years I have created many wonderful recipes to share with my loyal following. My Breakfast Cookies, Homestyle Granola, Breakfast Cookie Minis and Organic Brownie Bites are handcrafted and baked to order, promising homemade freshness and flavor!

Simple, wholesome baking principles inspired me when I was a little girl. They still make perfect sense now that I am grown up! Bake with purpose, bake fresh to order, bake with healthy and wholesome ingredients. It's that simple.
