Banana Oat Chocolate Chip Cookies
Cook time: 15min Prep time: 10min Total time: 25min
Servings: 8-10 cookies
Ingredients
- 3 large bananas (must be ripe)
- 1.5 cups of One Degree Sprouted Oats
- 1/2 cup Hu Dark Chocolate Chips
- 1/3 cup of Add Ins (see below), optional
- Sea salt, for topping
Instructions
- Set oven to 350F. Line a baking tray with parchment paper.
- Mash bananas in a large mixing bowl.
- Add in oats, folding in the chocolate chips or add ins of your choice. Softly mix.
- Use an ice cream scoop to pack the cookie batter, placing them on the lined baking tray. I use a drinking glass to press down each pile to make even-sized cookies. I fit 8 cookies per tray. These cookies do not spread when baking.
- Bake for 12-14 minutes. Add an extra 1-2 minutes if you’ve mixed in additional ingredients like coconut or walnuts for example. Make sure to watch in case they over-brown.
- Sprinkle the top with flaky sea salt, if desired.
