Ingredients
- 3/4 cup banana
- 1 1/4 cups organic rolled oats
- 1/4 cup flaxmeal
- 1/4 cup peanut butter
- 1/4 cup coconut sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 tsp cinnamon
- 1/3 cup chopped nuts (walnuts, almonds, pecans)
- 1/4 cup dark chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350℉.
- Line a large cookie sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat. Slightly oil paper with cooking oil spray. Set aside.
- Mash the bananas and pack it in a 3/4 cup measuring cup to measure precisely.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine all the ingredients: mashed banana, peanut butter, oats, and flaxmeal. Stir in the vanilla extract, salt, cinnamon, and coconut sugar. Stir until fully combined and a sticky cookie dough forms.
- Stir in chopped nuts and chocolate chips. Combine until it is well incorporated.
- Use a cookie dough scoop to form 8 cookie dough balls. The dough is sticky and that’s normal. Lightly oil the back of a fork and press down the cookie dough balls slightly to form a round cookie shape.
- Place each ball onto the prepared baking tray, leaving a 1-thumb space between each of them. They won’t extend in the oven, the shape you give now, is the shape you get after baking.
- Bake the cookies for 16-18 minutes at 350 °F until golden brown.
- Let the cookies cool on the cookie sheet for 15 minutes, then transfer them to a cooling rack for 30 minutes.
