- To make these cookies vegan, use maple syrup instead of honey.
- For added protein, include a tablespoon of chia seeds or protein powder.
- If you'd like extra crunch, add sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, or coconut flakes.
- For a treat with a little indulgence, mix in some dark chocolate chips.
- Swap blueberries for other berries like raspberries or strawberries if desired.
