- 1/2 cup mashed banana
- 1/4 cup almond butter
- 1 tablespoon honey
Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and ensure easy cleanup.
- Mix the base ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the rolled oats, mashed banana, almond butter, honey, and cinnamon thoroughly to create the cookie dough base.
- Add raisins and chocolate chips: Stir in the raisins and dark chocolate chips if you are using them, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
- Form the cookies: Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of the dough and place them evenly spaced on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake the cookies: Bake in the preheated oven for 10–12 minutes, or until the cookies turn golden brown and are firm to the touch.
- Cool before serving: Remove the baking sheet from the oven and allow the cookies to cool completely on a wire rack for best texture and flavor.
