Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces ripe bananas
- 1.5 cups rolled oats
- 2 tablespoons peanut butter
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 cup chocolate chips or raisins (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
In a large mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas until smooth using a fork or potato masher.
Add the peanut butter, maple syrup, and vanilla extract to the mashed bananas. Stir until well combined.
Stir in the rolled oats, ground cinnamon, and salt. Mix until the ingredients are evenly incorporated.
If using chocolate chips or raisins, fold them into the cookie dough.
Scoop tablespoons of the dough onto the prepared baking sheet, shaping them into small rounds. Flatten each cookie slightly as they won’t spread during baking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12–15 minutes, or until the cookies are golden and set.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the tray for about 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy your Banana Oat Cookies fresh or store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days.
