Chocolate Walnut Banana Bread Breakfast Cookies
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups plus 2 heaping Tbsp old-fashioned rolled oats (large flake oats)
- 3 very ripe bananas, mashed
- 1/2 cup of mini chocolate chips (I use DF ones)
- 1/3 cup of crumbled walnuts (or pecans)
- 3 Tbsp of peanut or almond butter
- 1-2 Tbsp of maple syrup or honey (optional)
- 1 Tbsp of pure vanilla extract (optional)
Preparation
Preheat your oven to 350F and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
Mash your bananas in a bowl.
Add the rest of the ingredients to the bowl and mix.
Shape into mini slider patties and flatten them out slightly; these don’t rise or expand (no baking powder or soda).
Bake for ~13 mins or until edges are crispy and golden brown.
Allow them to cool a bit and harden; best enjoyed warm.
Store in a Tupperware or glass jar inside your fridge or at room temp. Enjoy them within 3 days.
