Ingredients
Wet ingredients
- 3 ripe bananas
- 1 egg
- 1/4 cup peanut butter
- 2 Tbs honey or maple syrup
- 2 Tbs apple sauce
- 1 tsp vanilla
Dry Ingredients
- 2 cups quick oats if you don't have quick oats, you can pulse rolled oats in a blender about 5 times
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350℉.
- In a large mixing bowl mash bananas.
- Add egg, peanut butter, honey, apple sauce and vanilla and whisk until combined.
- Add quick oats, cinnamon, salt, baking soda, and baking powder and stir with a spatula until combined.
- Fold in chocolate chips. Let dough rest in the fridge for 10 minutes so the oats can hydrate - this will help thicken the dough and make it more scoobable.
- Using a large 3Tbs cookie scoop, scoop dough onto a parchment lined baking sheet. I like to add a few more chocolate chips to the top here.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes or until the edges are set.
- Store in an air tight container for up 5 days. Enjoy!
