2 Ingredient Cookies (recipe)

As a follow-up to my fruit leather snack post, I thought I would share another Pinterest find for a fun snack that we are now regularly making in our home... 2 Ingredient Cookies!

Well, the truth is that they can have as many ingredients as you would like them to have, but they really only need 2 ingredients to work (and be delicious!). No oil, no eggs, no flour, and they taste like banana bread!


2 Ingredient Cookies

Ingredients:
These are the two main ingredients you have to have...

• 2 very ripe bananas (like you would use to make banana bread)
• 1 cup of oats (we don't have quick oats here like they recommend so I used the ones that are slightly copped up... if you only have steel cut oats put them in the blender and break them up a bit!)

I added the following to spice them up a bit!

• Walnuts (you can toast them or put them in raw)
• Dark chocolate

Some other ideas on what to add...

• Raisins
• Pecans or other types of nuts
• Cinnamon

Step 1:

Preheat your oven to 350F/175C

Step 2:

Mash your bananas and mix in the oats. Make sure these two ingredients are well mixed.

Step 3:

Mix in the additional ingredients you would like to add in and stir well.

Step 4:

Place cookie drops (normal sized, about 1 tablespoon worth of mix) on to a lightly greased cookie sheet or silpat.

Bake for around 15 minutes or until the bottoms are lightly browned.

Step 5: 

Let cool and eat up!
