Made with 5 ingredients and kid-friendly! These are made with a base of 4 ingredients; banana, almond butter, oats and cinnamon. I also add in chocolate chunks here but you can personally get creative with whatever toppings you’d like!
There are so many ways to use up over-ripe bananas – banana bread, smoothies and even cookies like this! They’re gluten-free, kid friendly and only require a few ingredients you likely already have at home! If not, they’re definitely staple ingredients!
These are a delicious little nibble as a snack or breakfast in the morning! Cookies for breakfast? Say no more!
Feel free to add in your own crushed nuts, seeds, replace almond butter with peanut or cashew butter, add white chocolate chips or dried fruit. Have fun with it!
