I’ve made these breakfast snack cookies three times in the past two weeks . .  and they have disappeared FAST every time. You can feel good about eating these because there’s no butter, no added sugar (you get the sweetness from the bananas and chocolate chips) and they are packed with good nutrition, like flaxseed meal.

Yes, I used flaxseed meal again. What can I say? I love the stuff!

Prep Time5 mins
Cook Time20 mins
Total Time25 mins
Course: Breakfast or Snack
Servings: 15
Author: Hip Foodie Mom

Ingredients

  • 2 ripe bananas
  • 1 cup Bob's Red Mill gluten free rolled oats
  • 1/2 cup Bob's Red Mill ground flaxseed meal
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
  • 1/4 cup sliced almonds
  • pinch of salt optional
  • 1/2 cup semi-sweet or bittersweet chocolate chips*

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Prepare a parchment paper lined baking sheet and set aside.
  • Using a large mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas with a fork. Add in the rolled oats, flaxseed meal, shredded coconut, almonds and salt (if using). Mix together with a spoon. Add in the chocolate chips with mix together again.
  • Using a cookie scoop, scoop out the cookie batter and place on the baking sheet. The cookies don't spread so don't worry about the spacing too much. Press down gently with your hands if flatter tops are desired. Bake for about 18 to 20 minutes, or until lightly golden brown on the outside. Let cool for about 8 to 10 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
