Easy Banana Breakfast Cookies
Healthy oatmeal breakfast cookies made with ripe bananas, applesauce, honey and quick oats. No flour, no butter and no eggs, with blueberries or cranberries folded in. Makes about a dozen.
Ingredients
- 2 ripe bananas mashed
- 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce
- 1/4 cup pure honey
- 2 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 2 and 1/2 cups whole quick oats
- 1/2 cup fresh blueberries or coarsely chopped fresh cranberries optional
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375.
- In medium-sized bowl, mash bananas. Add applesauce, honey, vanilla, cinnamon, and salt. Mix well.
- Add oats and stir well. Fold in blueberries or cranberries. Allow cookie dough to sit for 5 to 10 minutes so the oats can soak up the excess liquid.
- On a baking sheet, lightly spray with olive oil cooking oil or line with silicon baking liners and drop large spoonfuls of cookie dough (about 1/4 cup size) an inch apart.
- Bake for 18 to 20 minutes until slightly golden brown.
