Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces ripe banana
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 0.5 cup chopped walnuts
- 2 tablespoons natural peanut butter
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 pinch salt
- 2 tablespoons chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions
In a medium mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas with a fork until smooth and free of large lumps.
Add the rolled oats, chopped walnuts, peanut butter, honey, ground cinnamon, and salt to the mashed bananas. If using chocolate chips, add them now as well.
Stir the mixture until all the ingredients are evenly combined and form a slightly sticky dough.
Using clean hands or a small cookie scoop, take a heaping tablespoon of the mixture and roll it into a ball. Repeat until all the mixture is used, making approximately 12 snacks.
Place the Banana Nut Snacks on a plate or baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Refrigerate the snacks for at least 30 minutes to firm up before serving.
Store the snacks in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days, or freeze them for longer storage.
