Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups old fashioned rolled oats
- 3 overripe (or ripe bananas)
- ½ cup peanut butter (or any nut butter)
Optional Add Ins:
- ¼ - ½ cup chocolate chips
- 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, mash the bananas with a fork or potato masher.
- Stir the oats and peanut butter into the bananas until combined. Mix well. Optionally, stir in chocolate chips and maple syrup for sweetness.
- Before working with the dough, wet your hands to prevent the dough from sticking. Use a spoon or large cookie scoop to portion out 8 balls of dough. Use your hands to flatten the dough into round cookies about ½ inch tall.
- Place the cookies on the baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake in the preheated oven for 12 - 15 minutes, until lightly browned.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 10 - 15 minutes before transferring to a wire rack (or a plate) to cool completely.
