These are super simple cookies that are good for breakfasts or snacks. They truly are sweet enough without adding any sweetener (even my kids think so). The riper the banana, the sweeter it will taste. Also, I've learned that mashing bananas on a dinner plate is much faster than in a bowl!
Chocolate Chip Banana Oatmeal Bites
2 very ripe bananas
1 c. oats (rolled or quick)
1/2 tsp cinnamon
small handful of chocolate chips (milk or semi-sweet. Peanut Butter chips would be yummy too)
Optional add-ins:
vanilla extract
shredded coconut
chopped nuts
dried fruit
Preheat oven to 350.
Mash the bananas until pretty smooth, but a few small chucks are ok. Mix together with the oats and cinnamon (and vanilla, if using). Add in chocolate chips and any other optional add-ins.
Lightly grease a cookie sheet or line with a silpat or parchment. Use a tablespoon to scoop the mixture onto the cookie sheet. You can flatten it a little if you want (they don't really spread). Bake 15-20 minutes. If you made them bigger or really dome shaped, you might need 20-25 minutes.
