Ingredients
- 2 very ripe bananas
- 1 cup gluten-free rolled oats
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup (optional)
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, mash the ripe bananas with a fork until smooth. Mix in maple syrup and vanilla extract if using.
- Stir in cinnamon and gluten-free rolled oats until well combined. Add optional ingredients like chocolate chips or nuts at this stage.
- Scoop about 1–1½ tablespoons of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, shaping them into cookies as they won't spread much during baking.
- Bake for 12-14 minutes or until lightly golden brown on top. Let cool for about 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
