Power cookies (four ingredient)
Instructions :
- Preheat the oven to 350. Coat a cookie sheet with nonstick spray, or cover with parchment or a nonstick pad.
- In a food processor combine all the main ingredients (no add-ins yet). Pulse until the oats are broken into small pieces, the banana is no longer visible, and the whole thing has formed a thick paste.
- If you are using any add-ins, transfer the dough to a mixing bowl and add your mix-in of choice. Use a fork to gently fold into the batter until evenly distributed.
- Roll into 2-inch balls and evenly space on cookie sheet. Press down gently to flatten balls slightly.
- Bake for 15 minutes and cool completely before serving or storing.
Notes :
Store in an airtight container for up to five days, or freeze for up to three months.
