Ingredients
Wet:
- 1 banana very ripe

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F / 190ºc
- In a bowl, mash the banana really well. Add the rest of the ingredients and mix until fully combined.
- I usually warm the entire bowl by keeping it near the oven (or microwave for a few seconds) to help the nut butter mix in faster.
- Add the almond flour, coconut flour, starch, baking soda, baking powder and salt and mix in.
- Add oats and chocolate chips and mix in. At this point you can also add cranberries, nuts chopped small, seeds, candied ginger etc.
- Oil or flour your hands and make flat cookies from the mixture and place on parchment lined baking sheet.
- Bake for 13 to 15 minutes until almost all golden. Cool completely and store in an airtight container on the counter for upto 2 days or refrigerated for upto a week..
