RIDICULOUSLY HEALTHY BANANA OATMEAL COOKIES



Ridiculously Healthy Banana Oatmeal Cookies image

In a bid to add to my seemingly-naughty-but-actually-very-healthy recipe collection, I invented these ridiculously healthy banana oatmeal cookies! They have no added sugar, no butter/marg and no flour in them and (considering this) taste rather magnificent if I do say so myself! I'll say it now - if you're NOT on a diet then you probably won't think so much of these. They are pretty yummy, but there are probably plenty of nicer recipes (ie. with butter and sugar) if you're not weight watching. I find these to be a really nice, healthy, filling treat though, and I hope you enjoy them too!

Time 30m

Yield 9 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 ripe bananas
2 cups oats (not instant, the proper scotts type)
1/2 cup skim milk
1 egg
2 tablespoons Splenda sugar substitute
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 tablespoon low-fat peanut butter (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 180c.
  • Mash the bananas and mix with the oats, milk and egg before adding the remaining ingredients (it just mixes a bit easier and more evenly this way). These measurements make the mixture just the right consistency for my liking, but if it looks a bit runny to you at this point, throw in another handful of oats to thicken it up.
  • Grease a cookie tray with 1 cal spray and spoon the mixture on to make around 9 large cookies.
  • Bake for around 20mins until golden brown.

Time 25m

Yield 12-18 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 cup mashed ripe banana
2 cups oatmeal
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1/4 cup applesauce
1/3 cup raisins
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Mix all ingredients until moist.
  • (I use old-fashioned rolled oats, but imagine you could use quick-cook oats instead).
  • Mixture will be gooey and sticky.
  • That is normal.
  • Drop by tablespoonful onto ungreased baking sheet.
  • Flatten to desired thickness and shape, as cookies WILL NOT spread on baking.
  • Bake at 350 degrees for 15 minutes.
  • Remove to wire rack to cool.

Tips:

  • Use ripe bananas. The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more flavorful your cookies will be.
  • Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the cookies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Chill the dough before baking. This will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Bake the cookies at a moderate temperature. This will help them bake evenly without burning.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before enjoying. This will allow them to firm up and develop their full flavor.

Conclusion:

These healthy banana oatmeal cookies are a delicious and nutritious snack or breakfast option. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With their combination of oats, bananas, and peanut butter, these cookies are a good source of fiber, protein, and healthy fats. They are also naturally sweetened with honey, making them a healthier alternative to traditional cookies.
