Made with wholesome ingredients like mashed banana, oats, unsweetened shredded coconut, and cocoa powder, these cookies are packed with flavor and nutrition.
Ingredients:
- 1 ripe banana, mashed
- 1 cup old-fashioned oats
- 1/4 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
- 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 1/4 cup chopped almonds
- 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips (optional)
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly coat it with cooking spray.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the mashed banana, oats, shredded coconut, cocoa powder, almond milk, chopped almonds, mini chocolate chips (if using), vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Stir until well combined and the mixture holds together.
Using a spoon or cookie scoop, portion out the dough and drop it onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing the cookies about 2 inches apart.
Use the back of the spoon or your fingers to flatten and shape each cookie into a round disc.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the cookies are set and slightly firm to the touch.
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once cooled, store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3-4 days
