Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 cups rolled oats (gluten-free, if needed)

Wet Ingredients

  • 2 large bananas (mashed)
  • 1/2 cup peanut butter

Fruit

  • 1/4 cup blueberries

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Line a cookie sheet or baking tray with parchment paper and set it aside to ensure easy removal of cookies after baking.
  2. Mix Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, peanut butter, and mashed bananas thoroughly. Once well mixed, gently fold in the blueberries using a rubber spatula to avoid breaking them up.
  3. Shape the Cookies: Form the mixture into 12 equal-sized balls and place them spaced evenly on the lined baking tray. Press each ball down to flatten slightly into a cookie shape for even baking.
  4. Bake: Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the edges turn golden brown and the centers are just set but not hard.
  5. Cool the Cookies: Remove the baking tray from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the tray for 10 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely, which helps them firm up and develop the best texture.

Notes

  • Use gluten-free oats if you require a gluten-free version of this recipe.
  • Choose fresh or frozen blueberries; if using frozen, gently thaw and drain excess moisture before mixing.
  • Peanut butter can be substituted with any nut or seed butter for variations.
  • Do not over-bake to keep the cookies soft and chewy.
