Method

Step-by-Step Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Mash 2-3 ripe bananas until smooth and stir in 1/4 cup of nut butter and optional honey or maple syrup.
In another bowl, sift together 1.5 cups of oats and 1 teaspoon of cinnamon, then mix in any optional ingredients.
Gently fold the dry ingredients into the banana mixture until just combined.
Scoop the dough onto the baking sheet, spacing the cookies about two inches apart and flattening them lightly.
Bake for 10-12 minutes until golden around the edges and spring back lightly when touched.
Cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
