Scale
Ingredients
- 2 ripe bananas, mashed
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1/2 cup blueberries
- 1/4 cup honey or maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- A pinch of salt
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent the cookies from sticking and ensure even baking.
- Mix Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the mashed bananas, rolled oats, blueberries, honey or maple syrup, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt. Mix well until all ingredients are thoroughly blended.
- Shape Cookies: Drop spoonfuls of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, flattening each slightly with the back of the spoon to shape them into cookie rounds.
- Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 15-18 minutes, or until the cookies’ edges turn golden brown, indicating they are cooked through.
- Cool: Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely, preventing them from becoming soggy.
- Store and Enjoy: Enjoy the cookies fresh, or store them in an airtight container for up to a week to maintain freshness and flavor.
Notes
- You can substitute honey with maple syrup for a vegan option.
- Ensure bananas are very ripe for natural sweetness and better binding.
- These cookies can be enjoyed warm or cold.
- Add chopped nuts or seeds for extra crunch if desired.
- Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature or refrigerate for longer shelf life.
