OATS COOKIES HEALTHY

This is a great recipe idea for oatmeal cookies to prepare gluten-free cookies in a few minutes with only 3 main ingredients. Moreover, you won’t need whole wheat flour, purpose flour, wheat flour baking powder, oat flour, or even flour baking powder. This recipe is made with only quick-cooking oats to make the cookie dough. Furthermore, you have two options for making them; for example, you can use the whole oats or blend them in a food processor and get fine oat flour. This last option will add an extra step to the recipe; however, it’s definitely worth it if you like the texture.

Additionally, these healthy oatmeal cookies are great to take on a lunch box for work or school, just store them in an airtight container and enjoy them as a filling and delicious snack.

Ingredients

  • 1 Large ripe banana.
  • ¾ Cup of Quick cooking oats.
  • 45 gr. of Dark chocolate chips*.

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 °F degrees (180 °C approx.).
  2. Peel the large ripe banana and place it into a large bowl or medium bowl. Then, with the help of a fork prepare a banana mash.
  3. Add the 3/4 cup of quick-cooking oats into the bowl and mix well.
  4. Then, add the dark chocolate chips (or dark chocolate chunks) and integrate them well to get cookie dough.
  5. On a baking tray, cover a tray with buttered paper** place cookie dough portions of a diameter of 4cm and keep a separation of 1 to 2 cm between them.
  6. Bake in the preheated oven for around 10 minutes. However, if you want a more crispy texture on the sides bake the oatmeal cookies for 15 minutes as I did.
  7. Once your healthy oatmeal cookies are baked to your taste let them cool down at room temperature. If you wish you can use a cooling rack too.
  8. If you prepare this delicious recipe in advance to enjoy it later, you can store these oatmeal cookies in an airtight container.

Notes

*I didn't have much dark chocolate chips, so I mixed them with dark chocolate chunks.

**If you don't have a sheet with parchment paper, you can spread coconut oil or vegan butter and sprinkle oat flour.
