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
- Mix all the dry ingredients together.
- 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!
- Mix the wet and dry ingredients together until well incorporated.
- 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!
- 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.
- Bake on 350 for about 15 minutes.
- Enjoy with coffee!
