Equipment

  • Medium bowl
  • Baking Sheet
  • Parchment Paper

Ingredients
  

Base

  • 2 items Very Ripe Banana Overripe bananas work best for sweetness and easy mashing.
  • 2 cups Old-Fashioned Rolled Oats Opt for certified gluten-free oats if needed.
  • 1 cup Unsalted, Unsweetened Smooth Natural Almond Butter Ensure it’s well-stirred and avoid added oils.

Sweetness

  • 1 cup Pure Maple Syrup Can substitute with honey for a different flavor.

Nutrition

  • 2 tablespoons Chia Seeds Rich in nutrients and omega-3 fatty acids.
  • 1 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon Optional but enhances the overall taste.

Flavor Balance

  • 1 pinch Salt Use Himalayan pink salt or sea salt for a subtle flavor boost.

Texture

  • 1 cup Unsweetened Dried Blueberries Can substitute with cranberries or other dried fruits.
  • 1 cup Chopped Walnuts Substitute with pepitas or omit for a nut-free version.

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • In a medium bowl, combine the mashed banana, old-fashioned rolled oats, almond butter, pure maple syrup, chia seeds, ground cinnamon, and a pinch of salt; stir everything together until well mixed and creamy.
  • Gently fold in the unsweetened dried blueberries and chopped walnuts until evenly distributed throughout the mixture for an added burst of flavor and texture.
  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Using wet hands, scoop and roll the dough into 8 equal portions. Flatten each ball into a disk about 2½ to 3 inches in diameter—this helps them hold their shape!
  • Refrigerate the cookies, covered, for at least 4 hours or overnight. This helps them firm up and makes them easier to enjoy on those busy mornings ahead.

Notes

Optional: Drizzle some extra maple syrup on top before serving for added sweetness.
