- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- A pinch of salt
Fruit
- 1/2 cup blueberries
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
- Mix Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the mashed bananas, rolled oats, blueberries, honey or maple syrup, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and salt. Stir until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.
- Shape Cookies: Drop spoonfuls of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, gently flattening each to form cookie shapes.
- Bake: Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 15-18 minutes, until the edges of the cookies turn golden brown.
- Cool Cookies: Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Serve or Store: Enjoy the cookies fresh, or keep them stored in an airtight container for up to one week to maintain freshness.
Notes
- For a vegan option, use maple syrup instead of honey.
- These cookies can be customized by adding nuts or seeds for extra texture and nutrition.
- Ensure bananas are very ripe for the sweetest flavor and best binding.
- Store leftover cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week or freeze for longer storage.
