Have bananas that are over ripe, but tired of banana bread? Then these Healthy Banana Cookies are for you! They are the perfect guilt-free, soft, chewy snack! No sugar, no eggs, no butter, no oil! And super simple and easy to throw together.
We love to Fatbike on the snowy trails with our boys (Zeus and Thor) – these treats are a must have when on a long ride. The bananas add flavor, texture and sweetness. And the wholesome ingredients make these so much better than any packaged protein or energy snack.
You can make so many variations with these cookies, simple add 2-3 tablespoons chocolate chips, dried fruit, nuts, coconut or combinations of these to make them unique each time.
