About recipe

These Banana Oatmeal Cookies are the perfect way to use up those overripe bananas sitting on your counter. They’re an easy, grab-and-go snack made with wholesome ingredients—gluten-free, dairy-free, and naturally sweetened with honey instead of refined sugar. Great for busy mornings, afternoon snacks, or a healthier treat anytime.

Ingredients (serves 18)

3 overripe bananas
2 tablespoons honey (or maple syrup)
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/2 cup quick cooking oats
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
1/2 cup chocolate chips
(other add-ins: white chocolate chips, dried cranberries, raisins, shredded coconut)

Preparation

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, mash the bananas.
Add the honey, egg, and vanilla. Stir to combine.
Add oats, cinnamon, and sea salt. Stir until combined.
Use a tablespoon measuring spoon or a 1 1/2 tablespoon cookie scoop to measure portions of the dough. Place them on the prepared baking sheet about 2″ apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the tops are just set and the bottoms are very lightly browned.
Let cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire cooling rack to cool completely.
Serve slightly warm or at room temperature.
