Ingredients

• 2 cups Rolled oats
• 1 cup Almond flour
• 2 tablespoons Ground flaxseed
• 1 tablespoon Chia seeds
• 1 teaspoon Cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon Baking soda
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 2 medium Mashed banana (ripe)
• 0.25 cup Maple syrup
• 0.25 cup Coconut oil (melted)
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.5 cup Chopped nuts (e.g., walnuts or almonds)
• 0.5 cup Dried fruit (e.g., cranberries or raisins)
• 0.25 cup Dark chocolate chips (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, almond flour, ground flaxseed, chia seeds, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt. Stir well to ensure an even distribution of dry ingredients.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, mash the ripe bananas until smooth. Add the maple syrup, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract, and whisk until fully combined.

Step 4

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until a thick dough forms. Fold in the chopped nuts, dried fruit, and chocolate chips, if using.

Step 5

Scoop approximately 2 tablespoons of dough per cookie onto the prepared baking sheet. Flatten each cookie slightly with the back of a spoon or your hand, as they will not spread much during baking.

Step 6

Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges of the cookies are lightly golden.

Step 7

Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 8

Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days, or freeze for longer storage.
