Simple Vegan Breakfast Cookies
Ingredients
- 1 ripe banana, peeled and mashed
- 6 tbsp peanut butter (I used Meridian Rich Roast)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 3-4 tbsp maple syrup (to taste)
- 1 1/2 cups oats
- 1/4 cup ground almonds
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1 tsp baking powder
- Pinch sea salt
- 2 tbsp pumpkin or sunflower seeds
- 4 tbsp raisins or chopped dates
- 2 tbsp dried cranberries
- 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips
Preparation
Stir together mashed banana, peanut butter, maple syrup and vanilla.
Whisk together the oats, almonds, cinnamon, baking powder, salt and seeds, dates, cranberries and chocolate chips.
Fold the banana mixture into the oats until combined. Shape the cookies into balls and flatten slightly. Add a sprinkle more ground almonds if too sticky then place in the fridge to chill for an hour.
Preheat your oven to 180C, then line a baking tray. Bake your cookies for 8-10 minutes, or until lightly golden. Leave to cool and enjoy, or store in an airtight container.
