Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 medium Ripe bananas
- 1.5 cups Rolled oats
- 1 cup Chopped dried dates
- 0.25 cup Unsweetened applesauce
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.33 cup Chopped walnuts (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas with a fork until smooth and creamy.
Add the rolled oats, dried dates, unsweetened applesauce, ground cinnamon, and vanilla extract to the bowl. Mix until all the ingredients are well combined.
If using chopped walnuts, fold them into the mixture for added crunch and flavor.
Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of the dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 1 inch apart. Flatten each scoop slightly with the back of a spoon to form cookie shapes.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the cookies are lightly golden and set.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the cookies cool for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve immediately or store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
