Ingredients
- 1 cup dates (soaked in warm water for 10 minutes and then drained)
- 1 ripe banana
- 2 Tbsp almond butter
- 3/4 Cup + 2 tbsp almond meal/flour (purchased or grind fresh almonds)
- 3/4 Cup + 2 tbsp rolled oats
- 1/2 Tsp salt
- 1/4 cup chocolate chips (I used half white chocolate and half peanut butter chips.)
Note
These simple, one bowl cookies are an easy and healthy snack you can whip together. They taste delicious on their own as well as crumbled on a bowl of Greek yogurt - a good breakfast option too!
Directions
1. | Add the dates to the food processor and process until they are in small pieces. |
2. | Add the banana and almond butter and process again until combined. |
3. | Add the almond meal, salt, and rolled oats and process again until combined. The dough will be sticky and wet, that's how it should be. |
4. | Turn dough out into a large bowl and mix in your 1/4 cup of chocolate chips. |
5. | Place the dough in your fridge for at least 15 minutes and preheat your oven to 350 degrees. |
6. | Scoop out about a tablespoon or so of dough onto a parchment lined baking sheet. Bake for about 15-20 minutes, or until lightly browned on the bottom. |
7. | Store for 2-3 days at room temperature in a covered container or for about 1 week in the fridge. |
