Ingredients

  • 1 cup (85 g) quick oats or old-fashioned whole oats
  • ½ cup (70 g) whole wheat flour
  • 2 teaspoons apple pie spice
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds
  • ¼ teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 large banana, mashed (about 1/2 cup / 90 g)
  • ½ cup (125 g) nut butter or nut-free butter
  • ½ cup (112 g) honey
  • 2 tablespoons (30 ml) plant-based milk (or regular milk)
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup (75 g) raisins

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350º F (180º C). Line two cookie sheets with parchment paper. Set aside.
  • In a large bowl, stir together the mashed banana, nut utter, honey, milk, and vanilla until well combined. Mix in oats, flour, apple spices, chia seeds, and baking soda. The will be dough is thick and heavy.
  • Using a 1/4-cup measuring cup, portion 1/4 cup mounds of cookie dough onto the prepared cookie sheets 3 inches apart. With a small spoon dipped in water, flatten and spread each mound of dough to a 2 1/2-inch round, about 1/2-inch thick. The cookies will not spread much in the oven.
  • Bake for 15 -18 minutes or until the edges are slightly brown. Cool cookies on the baking sheets for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

 
Store: Leftover cookies can be stored at room temperature for up to 5 days or in the refrigerator for up to 10 days.
Freeze: Let the baked cookies cool completely. Then, wrap them with plastic wrap, and freeze them for up to 2 months. Thaw on the counter or in the refrigerator. Bring to room temperature or warm in the microwave for a few seconds before serving.

Extra Tips:
  • You don’t like raisins? Just leave them out and try dried cranberries, other chopped dried fruits, or even dark chocolate chips! YUM.
  • You can also use any nut butter you like, such as peanut butter. This time I use cashew butter because I know it is safe for my daughter, but you can totally use another type of nut butter or nut-free butter, such as sunflower seed butter or No-Nut butter.
  • Substitute honey for maple syrup for a less sweet version.
  • If you don't have apple pie spice handy, you can add 1 1/2 teaspoons of ground cinnamon, ¼ teaspoon of ground nutmeg, and 1/8 teaspoon of ground allspice.
  • Add fresh or frozen berries! I love adding blueberries, about a cup (190 g). If using frozen, do not thaw.
