Instructions
Step 1
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
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
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
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 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.
Step 6
Your delicious banana oatmeal cookies are ready to be enjoyed! Perfect for snacking!
