Recipe serves: 10 – 12 cookies.

Prep time: 8 minutes

Cooking time: 10-15 minutes

Method

• In a mixing bowl, mash the banana well with a fork
• Add the oil and sugar and mix well
• Add the flour, baking soda, salt and any vegan powdered spice/flavour you like
• Mix these ingredients well, until the mixture is quite moist
• Now it’s time to add the oats, any nuts and seeds you have chosen. Mix really well to make sure it is all well distributed and stuck together
• Make small balls with the dough and place on an oiled baking tray
• Flatten the balls with the palm of your hand, making sure there is a reasonable gap between each disc shape
• Bake for 10-15 minutes (depending on how browned you like your cookies) in a preheated oven (200 Degrees Celsius)
• Leave to cool on the baking trays once finished in the oven and once they are slightly hardened, twist and lift to remove them from the tray and place on a cooling tray for a further 10 minutes

Tips – If your dough mixture is too greasy, add a few more teaspoons of flour. If your dough mixture is too dry and not sticking, add a little more oil until the mixture holds better.
