Prep Time 15 minutes
Cook Time 15 minutes
Total Time 30 minutes
Servings 2 dozen
Ingredients
- 2 cups old-fashioned oats
- 2/3 cup almond meal if you don't have almond meal, you can just pulse regular almonds in a blender or food processor until they arrive at a flour-y texture
- 1/3 cup shredded coconut sweetened or unsweetened
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 3 ripe bananas mashed
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup coconut oil at liquid state or melted butter although then they won't be vegan
- 1 cup chocolate chips
Instructions
-
Preheat oven to 350 and put your oven rack on the second row (so it'll be fairly high).
-
Place oats, almond meal, coconut, cinnamon, salt, and baking powder in a bowl and whisk well. Add bananas, vanilla and coconut oil and stir until combined. Fold in chocolate chips.
-
Place heaping spoonfuls (I use a medium cookie scoop) of dough on a cookie sheet and flatten them slightly with your finger (they won't bake down like regular cookies do, so if you want them more flat, which I always do, you'll need to make them the general shape you want them when they come out of the oven).
-
Bake for 15 minutes. Let cool slightly and eat all of them yourself because, hey, no added sugar.
