Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 cup old fashioned oats (or 3/4 cup oat flour)
- 1/2 cup almond meal
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp nutmeg
- 1/4 tsp ground ginger
- 1 cup bananas, mashed (about 3 large)
- 1 tbsp vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup walnuts chopped
- 1/4 cup raisins
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350˚F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone pad.
- Optional: In a high power blender or food processor, pulse the oats a few times until you get a rough flour consistency. You can skip this step if you want a more chewy texture.
- Pour oats into mixing bowl and add almond meal, baking soda and spices.
- Mash bananas with a fork until completely smooth. Add to the bowl along with vanilla. Blend well with a spatula.
- Add nuts and raisins until combined.
- Using an ice cream/cookie scoop (= about 2 tbsp), drop balls of dough onto cookies sheet, spacing well. Do not worry about the shape, these cookies will rise slightly and will not spread very much.
- Bake 20 minutes. Cool on the sheet pan 15 minutes then on a wire rack until completely cool.
- Store in an airtight container
