Ingredients

Scale

Wet Ingredients

  • 3 ripe bananas, mashed
  • 1/3 cup unsweetened applesauce
  • 1/4 cup almond milk
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 cups oats
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon

Mix-Ins

  • 1/4 cup raisins or nuts
  • 1 cup dark chocolate chunks (e.g., Lily’s brand)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to preheat at 350°F (177°C) to prepare for baking the cookies.
  2. Combine Wet Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the mashed ripe bananas and unsweetened applesauce. Stir these together until the mixture is smooth and well incorporated.
  3. Add Flavorings: Mix in the vanilla extract and ground cinnamon to the wet ingredients, ensuring an even distribution of flavor.
  4. Incorporate Oats: Add the 2 cups of oats to the banana mixture and stir thoroughly until everything is fully combined.
  5. Add Almond Milk and Mix-Ins: Pour in the almond milk to moisten the oats and batter. Then fold in the raisins or nuts and dark chocolate chunks evenly throughout the mixture.
  6. Prepare Baking Sheet: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it to prevent the cookies from sticking during baking.
  7. Form Cookies: Spoon out portions of the cookie mixture onto the prepared baking sheet. Flatten each portion slightly using the back of a spoon or your fingers to form cookie shapes.
  8. Bake Cookies: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the cookies are firm to the touch and lightly golden on the edges.
  9. Cool Cookies: Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  10. Serve and Enjoy: Once cooled, serve these healthy, sugar-free cookies as a guilt-free snack or treat your family and friends to a deliciously wholesome bite.

Notes

  • For a nut-free version, omit the nuts and substitute with extra raisins or seeds like pumpkin seeds.
  • Using ripe bananas is key for natural sweetness and moisture.
  • If dark chocolate chunks are not available, use any sugar-free or low sugar chocolate chips.
  • Store baked cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for up to a week.
  • These cookies freeze well; thaw at room temperature before serving.
