I found this recipe years ago on Mr.Breakfast.com and have been making it ever since. It's fun to play with the ingredients, adding raisins, applesauce, peanut butter, hemp seed, different kinds of nuts, etc. It's a little like a bowl of oatmeal that you can grab on the run!
Ingredients
- 3 cups oats shopping list
- 2 medium bananas shopping list
- just under 1⁄3 cup olive oil shopping list
- 1⁄3 tsp salt or to taste shopping list
- 1⁄3 to 1⁄2 cup dates (pitted) - I substitute raisins or prunes shopping list
- 2⁄3 cup toasted almonds or any other nut you like (optional) shopping list
- 2⁄3 cup dark chocolate chips (optional) - original recipe called for carob chips, I prefer chocolate! shopping list
How to make it
- Mix oats and salt. Add olive oil and mix well.
- In a blender, mix bananas and dates until well blended and smooth. You can add a little brown rice syrup or maple syrup if you want them sweet.
- Add banana mixture to the oats and blend well. Add nuts and chocolate chips if you like. Let stand for half an hour.
- On an ungreased cookie sheet, form cookies (they will not spread or change at all with baking, so make them nice!)
- Bake in a preheated 350 degree oven for 12-15 min.
- SOME TIPS: You can add an extra banana in place of the dates if you like. Store in the fridge—they are moist and will mold quickly if left out. I warm mine in the microwave for about 15 seconds before eating. ENJOY!
