WHAT YOU NEED:
. 1 1/2 cups of oats.
. 1 1/2 cups almond flour.
. 1 scoop vanilla flavoured protein powder (my fave is this plant based one).
. 1/4 cup unsweetened coconut.
. 2 ripe mashed bananas.
. 1 beaten egg (you can definitely make the recipe vegan by substituting with a flax egg).
. 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk.
. 1 tsp baking powder.
. A dash of cinnamon.
. 1 tsp baking soda.
. 1 tsp vanilla extract.
. 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chunks (I like to buy this one, but you can use this brand to make the recipe dairy-free)
WHAT TO DO:
. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
. In a large mixing bowl, combine all dry ingredients.
. Combine bananas, vanilla, milk and egg and add to dry ingredients.
. Scoop up dough with a spoon and place on baking sheet.
. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until slightly golden.
. Let cool and enjoy!
NOTES:
You can swap the bananas for unsweetened applesauce if you like that taste better.
I find that cookies made with either applesauce or bananas don’t taste as good the day after so, eat them all or freeze leftovers to consume later on!
