Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 1 large ripe banana Approximately 120g
- 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats Approximately 90g
- 2 tablespoons dried cherries Approximately 25g
- 1 tablespoon black chia seeds Approximately 15g
- 2 tablespoons almond butter Approximately 32g
Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, take the ripe banana and mash it until it becomes smooth.
- To the mashed banana, add the old-fashioned rolled oats, dried cherries, black chia seeds, and almond butter. Mix everything together until well combined.
- Using a spoon or your hands, scoop out portions of the dough and place them onto the prepared baking sheet. Gently flatten each one with your fingers or a spoon to form a cookie shape.
- Bake in your preheated oven for about 12–14 minutes, or until the cookies are set and lightly golden on the edges.
- Once baked, remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool completely on the baking sheet before transferring them to a storage container.
Notes
These cookies are fantastic on their own but can be enjoyed with almond milk or yogurt. For make-ahead convenience, prepare the dough in advance and store it in the fridge for up to two days. You can also add nuts for crunch or sweeten with honey or maple syrup as desired.
