Cozy Banana Oat Bites

How to make it

1. 1

   Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). While the oven heats, line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. 2

   In a comfy medium bowl, mash the ripe bananas really well with a fork until they are mostly smooth. A few little lumps are perfectly fine.

3. 3

   Add the rolled oats, creamy peanut butter, and lovely maple syrup to the mashed bananas. Stir everything together gently until it's just combined and looks like a happy cookie dough.

4. 4

   Now, gently fold in the mini chocolate chips. Try not to overmix them, just enough so they are nicely distributed throughout your dough.

5. 5

   Drop spoonfuls of the mixture onto your prepared baking sheet. Use the back of your spoon to flatten them slightly into pretty cookie shapes.

6. 6

   Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the edges are beautifully golden brown and the cookies feel set. Let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy!
