Honey-Sweetened Banana Oatmeal Cookies (Dairy & Egg Free!)

2

I know what you’re thinking – “How on earth did you make such a yummy, scrumptious looking cookie without using any dairy or eggs?!” Or not… ;)

Well, that’s what I was wondering when I found this recipe from the Food Allergy Mama. I finished grinding some soft white wheat berries and was looking for an easy banana cookie recipe to use up my lonely, overripe banana. I’m so glad I came across this one, because it is mmm-mmm-good! If you don’t know by now, I’m kind of obsessed with bananas, and these cookies totally satisfied that obsession. :)

I used coconut oil instead of the margarine, and raw honey instead of the sugar. I also added a little more cinnamon and used old fashioned oats, instead of quick-cooking oats. That’s it – no eggs, no processed sugar, and if you use dairy-free chocolate chips (or omit them entirely), they’re also dairy free!

I can only describe them as chewy, little banana bread bites – kind of like those two-bite brownies, but banana bread style…plus some oats for added texture.

They’re great as a breakfast cookie, an afternoon snack, or a guilt-free dessert. Oh, and they go sooo well with a nice glass of homemade almond milk!
