Ingredients

• 2 cups Rolled oats
• 1 cup Almond flour
• 1 teaspoon Baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 2 large Ripe bananas
• 1 large Egg
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.25 cup Unsweetened applesauce
• 0.75 cup Unsweetened dark chocolate chips
• 0.5 cup Chopped nuts (optional, such as walnuts or pecans)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large bowl, mix together the rolled oats, almond flour, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon. Stir until well combined.

Step 3

In a separate medium bowl, mash the ripe bananas with a fork until smooth. Add the egg and whisk until fully incorporated.

Step 4

Stir in the vanilla extract and unsweetened applesauce to the banana mixture.

Step 5

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined.

Step 6

Fold in the unsweetened dark chocolate chips and chopped nuts (if using), mixing until evenly distributed throughout the dough.

Step 7

Using a tablespoon or small cookie scoop, drop rounded spoonfuls of the dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

Step 8

Gently flatten each cookie with the back of the spoon or your fingers to your preferred thickness, as these cookies will not spread much during baking.

Step 9

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

Step 10

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

Step 11

Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
