Banana Oat Chocolate Chip Cookies

IMG_2361[1]

Ingredients

  • 2 ripe bananas
  • 1/2 cup rolled oats
  • 1/4 cup dark chocolate chips
  • 1 1/2 tbsp oat flour (blend up some oats in order to make the oat flour)
  • 1 tsp baking powder

Method

1. Preheat oven to 180°C.

2. Mash the banana in a bowl. Add the rest of the remaining ingredients into the mashed banana and mix.

3. Allow to sit for 15-18 minutes so that the mixture thickens up.

4. Form into golf ball sized balls (I just used a heaped tsp) – do not flatten and place onto a nonstick baking sheet/pan.

5. Bake for 15 minutes.

*I was able to make 7 cookies from this recipe but you can double the recipe again if you’d like to make more.

*I also used wholegrain spelt four for this recipe as I didn’t have enough oats so you can use whatever flour you want, works with anything.

Enjoy 🙂

  • 1/2 cup (170g) maple syrup

2. Line a loaf pan with parchment paper.

3. In a large bowl, combine the first 4 ingredients.  Set aside.

4. In a medium bowl, combine the syrup, coconut oil/butter, yoghurt, peanut butter and egg. Add the wet mixture to the dry and then fold in the mashed bananas. Pour the batter into your loaf pan and sprinkle the chocolate chips on top (you can also mix the chocolate chips through the mixture instead of sprinkling on top).

5. Bake for approx 60 minutes.  Allow to cool slightly before slicing.  Store leftovers in an airtight container.

*I love this when it is just out of the oven or else the day after I like to heat it up in the microwave so it’s warm and the chocolate chips are just about melting .. Yummaay!

Enjoy,
