These cookies are so simple, healthy, wholesome and quick to make. They take less than 15 minutes to bake too so are great to whip up for a mid-afternoon snack or make in the evening ready for an on-the-go breakfast the following morning.
I adapted the recipe from the Oh She Glows blog, with the original recipe here. I used one banana and some applesauce instead of two ripe bananas (as I only had one left in the pantry). I also didn't have any pre-blended oat flour so I just added whole oats to the mixing bowl. I used sugar-free jam but if using regular jam, the sugars per cookie will be a little higher. I also used unsweetened apple sauce as one ripe banana has plenty of natural sweetness for these cookies.
