I have had bananas in my fridge waiting for me to make banana bread...but that hasn't happened yet. However, they do act as a wonderful binder and I was out of eggs. I have a huge quantity of dry oats and for some reason have an excess of dark chocolate from making these no bake oreo pies for a wine tasting last week. Yes, those were delicious and yes, you can have the recipe!
So...with 4 ingredients (due to the fact that I love cinnamon on/in everything these days) I made these cookies. And Eric liked them! Although he said they were more savory and richer than expected, he wanted something sweeter. But DAAAANNNNNGGGG!!!! These were good!
 |
| 2 Overripe bananas, 1 cup quick oats, 1/4 cup dark chocolate morsels and some cinnamon. I just sprinkled it in there, but it was probably about 1.5tsp. Threw this in my food processor and pressed blend for about 2 minutes. |
 |
| Heat up the oven to 350F, then I used a tablespoon to scoop out the cookies. No, they weren't all the same perfect size...but hey, I was doing this quick status! |
 |
| This honestly made 9 cookies, but I ate one to taste test before taking a picture. Went in the oven for about 13 minutes and they come out crispy on the bottom and pretty soft on the top. I think I may add in some nuts and maybe coconut next time! A little extra crunch would be nice for me. Printer Friendly Recipe:
2 Ripe Bananas
1 c. Quick Oats
1/4 c. Dark Chocolate Morsels
Cinnamon (optional)
Other options: nuts, coconut flakes, white chocolate, peanut butter chips, anything your little heart desires!
Process/mix all ingredients together. Bake for 13-15 minutes at 350F. From start to finish, this should take you a whole 25 minutes to make (including clean up). Yummy, healthy and quick!
