Try these totally guilt-free, healthy cookies with only 5 ingredients... bananas, oatmeal, chocolate chips, and vanilla. This is a softer cookie, so it would make a great breakfast with an ice cold glass of milk! Ingredients:
3 bananas, ripe |
1/3 cup canola oil |
2 cups quick-cooking oats |
1/2 cup chocolate chips |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
cooking spray |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2. In a large mixing bowl, mash bananas with a fork until no longer lumpy. If bananas aren't very ripe, a hand mixer may be used. Stir in oil, oats, chocolate chips, and vanilla.
3. Lightly grease a cookie sheet.
4. For each cookie, spoon about 2 tablespoons of cookie mixture (or more depending on how big you want the cookie) onto the cookie sheet. Bake for 15-20 minutes.
5. **IF batter seems a little dry, add a little milk to moisten.
6. Variations: Instead of chocolate chips add raisins or craisins. Chopped walnuts are great in these cookies. Or, try coconut oil instead of canola oil.
