Who says you can't mix a bit of health into your treats? Our Banana Oatmeal Cookies are a delightful blend of nutrition and taste, ideal for our special dietary kiddos.
We've stirred in My Spectrum Heroes™ Multivitamin Mineral Plus to make these cookies more than just a tasty snack. They're gluten, casein, and soy-free .
Ingredients:
- 2 ripe bananas, mashed
- 1 1/2 cups Oats, whole or steel-cut
- 1/2 cup almond butter
- 1/4 cup chopped nuts (like walnuts or almonds, optional)
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- A pinch of cinnamon
- Multivitamin Mineral plus (per the recommended amount)
- Optional: raisins or dried cranberries for added sweetness
Directions:
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Combine Ingredients: In a large bowl, mix together the mashed bananas and almond butter until smooth. Add in the gluten-free oats, chopped nuts, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and Multivitamin Mineral Plus. If you're using raisins or dried cranberries, fold them in as well.
- Shape Cookies: Drop spoonful's of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet and flatten them slightly to form cookie shapes.
- Bake: Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 15-18 minutes, or until the edges of the cookies are golden brown.
- Cool and Serve: Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
