Banana Bread Cookies

Here we are again craving banana bread but knowing its not something I should put in my pie hole. 

I saw these on Instagram and thought I'd give them a try. They are DENSE, but really good. 

I made just a couple modifications to keep them low glycemic. 

1. I used sugar free peanut butter (Jiff Creamy to be clear)

2. I used sugar free chocolate chips. (Hershey brand)

Both sugar free options are surprisingly good. 

These cookies scratched the banana bread itch for me. I'm set for a couple of weeks. I froze half of them to have later. 

Banana Bread Cookies

Recipe from The Big Man's World

Makes 12 cookies

• 3 large bananas mashed
• 2 cups rolled oats can sub for rolled or quick oats
• 1/2 cup peanut butter can sub for any nut or seed butter
• 1/2 cup chocolate chips optional

Preheat the oven to 350F and line a large baking tray with baking paper, and set aside.

In a large mixing bowl, combine the bananas, oats, and peanut butter and mix very well. If the batter is too thin, add more oats. Fold through chocolate chips if using them.

Using your hands or a cookie scoop, form into 12 balls and set them on the lined baking tray. Press each ball into a cookie shape and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until slightly firm on the edges, and remove. Allow to cool on the tray completely.
