Take anywhere banana cookies


If you haven't noticed yet, I'm a BIG fan of healthy foods that  #1, my kids and husband will eat, and #2;  You can make ahead of time and take anywhere!  This recipe checks off both!

Take anywhere Banana Cookies



So simple...

Ingredients

  • 4 bananas, must be very ripe!
  • 1 1/2 cups oat flour 
  • (to make oat flour just put old fashioned oats or oatmeal; not the instant kind; in a blender or food processor until it becomes the consistency of flower)
  • 1/4 cup stevia
  • 3/4 tsp baking soda
From here on out, chose what you like, or make up your own combination, pick 2 mix-in's tops or the calorie count will change
  • 1/4 cup mini semi-sweet chocolate chips (if you like chocolate)
  • 1/4 cup nuts of your choice, chopped (optional) 
  • 1/4 cup dried fruit of your choice (try and find dried fruit with no added sugar)

Instructions

Put bananas in food processor until pureed. Add the rest of the ingredients and blend; batter should be very wet and not too thick. Stir in chocolate chips, fruit, etc, and drop by tablespoons onto parchment paper-lined cookie sheet. Bake at 350F for 8-10 minutes. Enjoy!
