How do you make healthy vegan chocolate peanut butter banana oatmeal cookies?

This is one of those recipes where you feel silly for writing it out as a recipe.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. 

In a large bowl, add all your ingredients and combine well.

Scoop out equal size amounts (it makes 6-8 depending on your size) and shape into a flat cookie shape about 1/2 inch thick.

Place on a parchment lined baking sheet and bake for 10 minutes. 

Remove from oven, let cool and serve. 

Can I make these without chocolate?

If you don’t like or don’t want chocolate cookies, but you’d like a healthier cookie, the chocolate can be omitted entirely.  Just use the oats, bananas, and peanut butter. 

Can I make with another nut butter besides peanut butter?

Yes.  If you want to use almond butter, cashew butter, or even sun butter, you can use any of them! 

Can I make these healthy vegan cookies Top 8 Allergen free?

Yes.  Make sure that you have gluten free oats and sub your peanut butter for sun butter.  

If you are using the optional vegan chocolate chips, make sure that you use safe ones, like Enjoy Life! 

Can you prep these healthy vegan cookies ahead of time. 

These cookies have bananas, so they have a lot more moisture than traditional cookies.  They will last for 5 days in an air tight container, but after that it’s very susceptible to mold so always check.  

What about traditional vegan cookies?

We know this is a healthy cookie and you may want a more traditional cookie.  We have a big list of traditional vegan cookies that you may want to try.
