‘In the cookie of life, friends are the chocolate chips’

I liked this recipe for two reasons, because the main ingredients are oats and bananas and because it is a blend and bake recipe. It has the same ingredients as your morning porridge but is easier to grab and go. I see this as a great breakfast, Mr B likes this as a sweet treat in-between meals, as he likes to have one hand permanently in the cookie jar.

The ingredients in this cookie can be mixed up, try orange and cranberries, blueberries or raisins, chocolate chips and coconut. 

Ingredients

  • 3 medium ripe bananas
  • 3 tbsp. peanut butter
  • 3 tbsp. maple syrup
  • 120g oats
  • 50g blueberries
  • 1 cup shredded coconut 
  • ½ cup. Vegan chocolate chips (optional)

Method

  • Preheat the oven too 350F and line a baking tray with parchment paper
  • Mash the bananas in a bowl, add the peanut butter, coconut and maple syrup, stir
  • Fold in the blueberries and chocolate chips
  • Spoon onto the baking tray, spreading a little to make them round
  • Bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown
  • Allow to cool, grab for breakfast or as a snack
