Since they're free of common allergens, these delicious cookies are perfect for sending to school in your kids' lunch boxes or to enjoy with a cold glass of milk after school. {Gluten-Free, Vegan, Dairy-Free}

Ingredients
 

  • 2 large overripe bananas
  • 1 cup quick oats (or sub in rolled oats)
  • 1/4 - 1/3 cup mini dark chocolate chips

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl, mash the bananas until mostly smooth. Mix in the oats until combined. Fold in the chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
  • Bake for 12-15 minutes, until lightly golden and slightly firm to the touch. Allow cookies to cool. They will firm up as they cool.

Notes

  • Use overripe bananas as they will lend extra sweetness and will be easier to mash.
  • These cookies are easily adaptable. For variety, add vanilla extract, cinnamon, chopped walnuts, a tablespoon of nut butter, flaxseed, hemp hearts, raisins, or a pinch of salt.
  • You can use quick oats or rolled oats if you prefer a chewier cookie. Or use a combination of the two for more texture. If using rolled, you may wish to allow the cookie mixture to sit for several minutes before baking to allow the oats to soften up slightly.
