The original name of these cookies is “Breakfast Cookies” but I really couldn’t imagine limiting myself to only eating them at breakfast because they’re so good and healthy, I really feel like I should be able to eat them anytime – So I named them “Anytime Cookies” These cookies are SUGAR free, DAIRY free and OIL free! Yeah, all that and they’re good. And if you use pure organic oats then they’re Gluten Free too! Should have named them FREE cookies.
INGREDIENTS
1 cup Rolled Oats – Quick – Pure and organic for GF
1 cup Applesauce – Unsweetened **SEE NOTES
2 Bananas – Very ripe
1/4 cup Cranberries – Dried
1 tsp Cinnamon
METHOD
-Preheat oven to 350 degrees
-Combine all ingredients in a bowl, mashing bananas with a fork as you go. The bananas should not be, and don’t need to be, fully mashed. Leave some yummy chunks
-Spray a cookie sheet with non-stick cooking spray and drop cookie dough in large tablespoons. You should end up with 12 cookies
-Bake for 30 – 35 minutes
NOTES
-I haven’t tried it yet but it might work to use 3/4 cup applesauce and 1/4 cup light peanut butter. Little bit extra zip!
