RIDICULOUSLY HEALTHY BANANA OATMEAL COOKIES



Ridiculously Healthy Banana Oatmeal Cookies image

In a bid to add to my seemingly-naughty-but-actually-very-healthy recipe collection, I invented these ridiculously healthy banana oatmeal cookies! They have no added sugar, no butter/marg and no flour in them and (considering this) taste rather magnificent if I do say so myself! I'll say it now - if you're NOT on a diet then you probably won't think so much of these. They are pretty yummy, but there are probably plenty of nicer recipes (ie. with butter and sugar) if you're not weight watching. I find these to be a really nice, healthy, filling treat though, and I hope you enjoy them too!

Time 30m

Yield 9 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 ripe bananas
2 cups oats (not instant, the proper scotts type)
1/2 cup skim milk
1 egg
2 tablespoons Splenda sugar substitute
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 tablespoon low-fat peanut butter (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 180c.
  • Mash the bananas and mix with the oats, milk and egg before adding the remaining ingredients (it just mixes a bit easier and more evenly this way). These measurements make the mixture just the right consistency for my liking, but if it looks a bit runny to you at this point, throw in another handful of oats to thicken it up.
  • Grease a cookie tray with 1 cal spray and spoon the mixture on to make around 9 large cookies.
  • Bake for around 20mins until golden brown.

Time 25m

Yield 12-18 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 cup mashed ripe banana
2 cups oatmeal
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1/4 cup applesauce
1/3 cup raisins
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Mix all ingredients until moist.
  • (I use old-fashioned rolled oats, but imagine you could use quick-cook oats instead).
  • Mixture will be gooey and sticky.
  • That is normal.
  • Drop by tablespoonful onto ungreased baking sheet.
  • Flatten to desired thickness and shape, as cookies WILL NOT spread on baking.
  • Bake at 350 degrees for 15 minutes.
  • Remove to wire rack to cool.

Tips:

  • Use ripe bananas: The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more flavorful your cookies will be.
  • Use old-fashioned oats: Old-fashioned oats provide a chewy texture and a nutty flavor.
  • Add mix-ins: Feel free to add your favorite mix-ins to the cookies, such as chocolate chips, nuts, or dried fruit.
  • Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough will make the cookies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the cookies at a high temperature: Baking the cookies at a high temperature will help them to rise and create a crispy exterior.
  • Let the cookies cool completely: Let the cookies cool completely before enjoying them. This will help them to firm up and develop their full flavor.

Conclusion:

These healthy banana oatmeal cookies are a delicious and nutritious snack that is perfect for breakfast, lunch, or a snack. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. So next time you are looking for a healthy and satisfying snack, give these cookies a try. You won't be disappointed!
