Chocolate Banana Oat Breakfast Cookies
These yummy breakfast cookies will have you wondering if you’re really eating a healthy cookie. They’re deliciously chewy and soft.
Ingredients
- 1 mashed ripe banana
- 1/2 cup oat flour
- 1/4 cup quick-cooking oats *the smaller texture of these oats is better for these cookies, but you can certainly try using regular oats*
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 tbsp creamy almond butter (or alternatively, creamy peanut butter)
- 4 tbsp coconut sugar *if you use regular sugar - add about a tablespoon less, as it’s more sweeter than coconut sugar*
- 3 tbsp and 1/2 tsp dairy-free or regular milk
- 1/2 tbsp cocoa powder
Instructions
- Combine all the ingredients (except for the cocoa powder!) in a large mixing bowl.
- Allow the dough to be refrigerated for 20 minutes.
- Divide the dough in half, and add 1/2 tablespoon cocoa powder (easier if you use your fingers here) to one half.
- Take about a 1/2 tbsp of each dough, press together, and mold into a cookie shape. Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet. There should be 9-10 cookies total.
- Bake at 350 degrees for 22 minutes.
