Ingredients
(makes about 4 cookies)
Dry ingredients

  • 1/2 c oats
  • 1 tbs chia seeds
  • 1 tsp cinnamon

Wet ingredients

  • 1/2 ripe banana, mashed
  • 1/2 c nut milk (I used unsweetened vanilla @malkorganics here)
  • 2 tbs peanut butter (look for one without additives!)
  • 1 tsp pure maple syrup

Topping, optional (but like… not optional)

  • Chocolate chips!!!

Directions

  1. Mix all the dry ingredients together.
  2. Mash the banana well, then combine with wet ingredients.Pro tip – put the PB in the microwave for a few seconds to make it easier to mix in!
  3. Mix the wet and dry ingredients together until well incorporated.
  4. Place in the fridge in a sealed container overnight (or up to a week) to let the oats and chia seeds soak up the liquid. This is important so you get a thickkk breakfast cookie!
  5. Once the mixture has had adequate time to soak in the nut milk, use an ice cream or cookie scoop to make golfball sized scoops onto a baking sheet with parchment. Press a few chocolate chips on top of each cookie.
  6. Bake on 350 for about 15 minutes.
  7. Enjoy with coffee!
