I love this recipe! I've been making it forever and finally have taken time to post it. It's nice to have another option for using up those over-ripe bananas. If I don't have time to actually make the cookies, I'll mash the bananas up in a tupperware and throw them in the freezer for later. ** Updated to be a vegan recipe. Also, I'd recommend replacing the cloves with cardamom for a twist on the original recipe! (3 July 09) ** Ingredients:
3/4 cup agave nectar (or 1 cup natural sweetener) |
1 cup applesauce |

2 cups whole wheat flour |

4 ripe bananas, mashed |
2 cups rolled oats |
1 cup dark chocolate chips (vegan) |

1. Preheat oven to 350.
2. In a large bowl, mix agave nectar, applesauce, and vanilla.
3. Stir in flour, baking soda, and spices.

5. Drop dough onto a baking stone or cooking sheet - bake 8 to 10 minutes.
