Banana Oatmeal Health Cookies

Category: DessertsCollection: Vegetarian Recipes

Ingredients

  • 2 cups mashed ripe bananas
  • 4 cups oatmeal
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
  • 2/3 cup chopped peanuts
  • 1/2 cup applesauce
  • cinnamon to taste (about 1/2 to 1 tsp)

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Mix all ingredients together in a bowl
till everything is uniformly moist.
Drop dough by tablespoonfuls on an
ungreased cookie sheet. The dough will
not spread, so flatten it to desired
cookie thickness. Bake for 15 minutes.
Eat warm or after cooling. Store in an
airtight container.

These are awesome snacks, and don't get
much healthier. They are wheat-free,
with no added sweetener or butter. For
a variation, you can substitute the
nuts with just about anything: raisins,
dates, or if you want to be less
healthy maybe some vegan choc or carob
chips. :)

Enjoy!
