PP Flourless Oatmeal-Banana Breakfast Cookies

Chef: Laura Theodore, Jazzy Vegetarian

Makes: 12-16 cookies

Prep Time: 10 min

Cook Time: 15-20 min

Total Time: 25-30 min

INGREDIENTS

  • 3 T golden flaxseeds (optional)

  • 1 ¼ c old fashioned rolled oats (quick cooking or regular)

  • 1 1/3 c bananas, peeled and sliced

  • 1/3 c maple syrup, agave syrup or date syrup

  • 1 T rounded, tahini (or peanut, almond or any nut butter)

  • ½ t cinnamon, ground

  • 1/3 c raisins, ~or~ dried cherries, pitted chopped dates, or sweetened dried cranberries

DIRECTIONS

  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a large, rimmed baking sheet with unbleached parchment paper.

  2. Put the optional flaxseeds in a high-performance blending appliance and process into fine flour. Put the flaxseed flour into a large bowl. Add the oats and stir to combine.

  3. Put the sliced bananas, maple syrup, tahini & cinnamon a medium-sized bowl. Using a potato masher, mash until almost smooth, leaving some chunky bits of banana. Add the banana mixture to the oat mixture and stir to combine. Fold in the raisins. (If it seems a bit dry add a bit more sweetener or mashed bananas.)

  4. Drop a heaping T of the cookie dough onto the prepared sheet and flatten slightly with a rubber spatula. Continue in this manner with the remaining dough. Bake for 15 to 20 min, or until the edges are golden brown and cookies are almost set.

  5. Transfer the cookies to a wire rack and cool for 8 to 10 min. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator; the cookies will keep for about 3 days.
