Hi, all! Happy February! I don’t know about you, but I’m feeling pretty ready for Spring and warm weather. Hopefully we only have a few weeks to go of chilly temperatures! In the meantime, I have a super easy, fast, healthy and yummy recipe for you to try: two-ingredient cookies! The only two things you need to make these are bananas and oats. After those base ingredients, you can customize these cookies with mix-ins (so of course I added chocolate chips). Here’s how to make them:

Ingredients:

• 2 ripe bananas, mashed
• 1.5 cups old fashioned oats
• Mix-ins of your choice (chocolate chips, peanuts, cinnamon, raisins or other dried fruit, slivered almonds… the world is your oyster)

First, preheat the oven to 350F. While the oven is heating, mash the bananas in a bowl until they resemble baby food. Then, mix in your oats and stir until everything is combined. Finally, stir in whatever mix-ins you want.

Form the mixture into balls and place on a baking sheet. I used a baking mat for easy cleanup, but you can just put the “dough” right on the baking sheet too.

Bake at 350F for 20 minutes.

And that’s it! The cookies should be crisp on the outside but chewy and soft on the inside. It seriously tastes like banana bread when you bite into them but it’s healthier AND took way less time. Win win!

To keep these fresh for longer, I recommend storing them in the fridge (unless your family eats them all in a day, which is very possible). Happy baking!
