Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 medium Ripe bananas (mashed)
- 1.5 cups Rolled oats
- 0.5 cups Almond flour
- 1 teaspoon Cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons Honey (or maple syrup)
- 0.25 cups Chocolate chips (optional)
- 0.25 cups Chopped nuts (optional)
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Baking powder
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 with a fork until smooth.
Add the rolled oats, almond flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt to the bowl. Mix until combined.
Stir in the vanilla extract, honey (or maple syrup), and any optional add-ins like chocolate chips or chopped nuts.
Scoop out tablespoon-sized portions of the dough and place them onto the prepared baking sheet. Flatten each cookie slightly with the back of a spoon or your fingers.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the cookies feel set.
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or refrigerate for up to a week.
