Morning Glory Cookies image

This is a great alternative to a morning glory muffin and can be prepared for a large number of people for breakfast or brunch - use 1 teaspoon per cookie. I substituted wheat flour with spelt flour and drained the pineapple. Since I did not have one cup of pecans, I added chopped dates and raisins to make one cup. They are usually a big hit and can be frozen!
