Preheat your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, combine the rolled oats, whole wheat flour, baking soda, ground cinnamon, and salt. Mix well.
In another bowl, mash the ripe bananas until smooth. Add the unsweetened applesauce and vanilla extract to the mashed bananas and mix until combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until everything is evenly mixed. If using, fold in the chopped nuts and raisins or dried fruit.
Use a tablespoon to scoop the dough onto the prepared baking sheet, forming small mounds. Flatten each mound slightly with the back of the spoon.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the edges begin to turn golden brown.
Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy your sugar-free oat cookies as a healthy snack or dessert!
