Banana & Apple Cookies
We love these cookies here at the zest life. We made them for our latest retreat “Yoga Rocks” where we hiked up Snowdon. It was these cookies that gave us the energy to get up to the summit.
They are dairy, gluten, wheat and sugar free so they are suitable for everyone with their funny dietry requirements.
They are also so simple to make too, so off you go, have fun and enjoy baking.
ingredients
3 ripe bananas
2 cups oats
1/4 cup peanut butter
1/4 cup cocoa powder
1/3 cup unsweetened apple sauce (or 1 grated apple)
1 tsp vanilla extract
Makes about 30 cookies
method
Preheat the oven to 350 F or 180 C
Mash bananas and add the remainder of the ingredients, stir and let sit for 20 minutes.
Drop a teaspoon of mixture onto a baking tray and press down with a fork to a flat cookie shape.
Bake for 10-12 minutes. When cooked they should be quite springy and spongy to touch. They are not hard like regular cookies.
Leave to cool and then enjoy xx
