- 2 very ripe bananas not previously frozen
- 1/2 cup peanut butter
- 2 cups quick oats
- 2 tbsp maple syrup
- 1.5 tsp vanilla
- 1/8 tsp salt optional
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips
In a medium-sized bowl, mash two ripe bananas with a fork until lumpy-smooth.
Add the peanut butter, maple syrup vanilla and a dash of salt and stir well.
Add in the quick oats and chocolate chips and stir until just combined.
Drop by heaping teaspoon onto a cookie sheet or baking stone, flattening slightly with the back of the spoon.
Bake for 15 minutes a 350ºF unit the edges start to brown.
Remove from oven and transfer to a wire baking rack to cool.
These cookies don't spread while baking so you can really load up your cookie sheet.
You can leave the salt out if you'd rather, but I always find a bit of salt enhances the flavour of chocolate.
Feel free to add any extras like chopped nuts, dried cranberries, seeds, coconut etc.
