Oatmeal Banana Cookies

This is a super simple cookie recipe and requires just two ingredients - bananas and quick oats. The best part? You can do this activity with your little one and it will be ready to enjoy in about 20 minutes. Hand over the controls and let your child be the masherthe whiskerthe retriever or the flattener. Baking experiences can lead to a sense of self-accomplishment for both you and your child. Encourage your child’s budding independence by giving him/her some child sized responsibility throughout this experience.

Instructions: 

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with silicone baking mat. 
  1. In a large bowl, add oats and mashed bananas. Mix with a fork until it becomes an evenly mixed, thick batter. If you plan on using add-ins like chocolate chips, mix them into the cookie batter at this time. 
  1. Make 8 round balls out of the cookie batter. Place onto baking sheet, spacing about 2 inches apart. Gently press down on each ball so that it flattens into a round disc. Cookies will not spread much during baking, so keep that in mind when shaping and flattening your discs. 
  1. Bake for about 15 minutes or until cookies are lightly brown and set. Cookie bottoms should also be brown and easily come off baking sheet. Let cookies cool before eating. Store uneaten cookies in the fridge. 

 

Add-ins can include, nuts, chocolate chips, shredded coconut, cinnamon, sprinkles, or dried fruit to name a few.
