Banana Oatmeal Breakfast Cookies
1/2 cup mashed bananas
1/2 cup unsweetened plain applesauce
2 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 cup flour
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
1 tsp cinnamon, optional
1 1/4 cups quick-cooking oats
1/2-3/4 cup safe chocolate chips or raisins, optional
Use a hand mixer to combine the bananas, applesauce, vanilla and brown sugar. In a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, salt and cinnamon. Add the flour mixture to the banana mixture and beat again until thoroughly combined. Fold in the oats and chocolate chips. Drop the dough by large spoonful onto parchment lined baking sheets. Bake at 350 for 18-22 minutes or until the cookies are just beginning to brown.
* The dough doesn't change shape much as it cooks, so you really don't have to worry about spreading.
* We like these cookies better once they have cooled completely.
