Instructions

Step 1

Prepare the Oats

Begin by grinding the rolled oats in a blender until they form a fine flour. This will help create a smoother cookie texture.

Step 2

Mix Wet Ingredients

In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground oats with the two ripe bananas and eggs. Mash the bananas well before mixing to ensure they incorporate evenly into the batter.

Step 3

Combine with Dry Ingredients

Next, add in the almond flour, ghee, and all the add-ins including nuts and dried fruits. Mix everything thoroughly until you achieve a consistent dough. Adjust the sweetness by adding vanilla and cinnamon as per your taste preferences.

Step 4

Shape the Cookies

Using your hands (a bit moist helps), form small circles from the dough and place them on a baking tray lined with parchment paper. If desired, sprinkle fresh blueberries into the mixture for added flavor and nutrition.

Step 5

Bake the Cookies

Bake in a preheated oven at 170 degrees Celsius (340 degrees Fahrenheit) for about 25 minutes. Keep an eye on them to achieve a perfect golden-brown color before removing them from the oven.

Faq

  • What if I don't have almond flour?

    You can make your own by blending almonds in a blender until fine or use another type of nut flour or regular flour if gluten is not a concern.

  • Can I replace bananas with another fruit?

    Absolutely! You can use applesauce or pureed dates for a different flavor, just remember to adjust the moisture level if needed.

  • What's the best way to store these cookies?

    Store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week. You can also freeze them for longer storage!

  • Can I add more nuts or ingredients?

    Of course! Feel free to mix in your favorite nuts, seeds, or even dark chocolate chips to customize these cookies to your taste!

  • How do I know when my cookies are done baking?

    They should be golden around the edges and slightly soft in the middle. They will firm up as they cool down!

  • What can I do if my dough is too sticky?

    If it's too sticky, add a little more almond flour a tablespoon at a time until you get the desired consistency for shaping the cookies.
