Two Ingredient Banana Oatmeal Cookies
Description
This cookie recipe starts by mashing ripe bananas and mixing them with quick oats, which provide structure. Additional ingredients such as chocolate chips, nuts, protein powder, or blueberries can be added for variety and flavor customization. The mixture is scooped onto a baking sheet and gently flattened before baking.
Baking at a moderate temperature for around 15 minutes results in cookies that hold together well, with a tender, moist texture. The natural sweetness of bananas reduces or eliminates the need for added sugar.
This recipe is accessible for home cooks wanting a healthyish snack or quick homemade cookie without complex ingredients or preparation. It can be adapted based on available mix-ins or personal preferences.
