2 small bananas or 1 large banana (ripe is better)
1 cup rolled oats
1 tsp vanilla
1/4 cup regular dark or mini semi sweet chocolate chips (optional)
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
Mix first 3 ingredients in bowl and then let sit for 10 minutes so oats can absorb the banana and soften.
Then add chocolate chips if desired. I love the clean ingredients in Enjoy Life dark or semisweet chocolate chips.
Use 2 teaspoons to spoon out cookies onto a parchment lined cookie sheet pan. The cookies will not spread and will keep their shape so you may want to flatten them a little with the back of a spoon.
Bake for around 25 minutes. They should be cooked on the outside and soft on the inside.
You can keep them in an airtight container for a few days. I like to freeze any leftovers right away as they thaw in minutes and tastes just as good as the first day. However, they usually don’t last that long!
