Ingredients

  • 2 very ripe bananas
  • 1 cup quick cooking oats
  • 1/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon optional
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract optional

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly grease a baking sheet.
  • In a medium size bowl, mash bananas to a fairly smooth consistency (a few small chunks is ok).
  • Add oats, cinnamon and vanilla to the bowl and mix well. Then mix in the chocolate chips. If the mixture seems really wet, add a few tablespoons of oats to thicken it up.
  • Using a tablespoon, scoop the dough and place on baking sheet. Then use your fingers to flatten out the dough a bit to create your cookie. You should get 12-16 cookies.
  • Place the baking sheet into the oven, on the center rack, and bake for 15 – 20 minutes. Keep an eye on it! Remove from the oven, and let cool a few minutes before eating.
  • Have the best morning ever!
