Healthy Banana Cookies
These are amazing! Like most cooks on allrecipes.com, I couldn't help but modify the recipe, since I thought that the amount of oil suggested was too much and the dates' sweetness would take away from the banana's flavor. I used 3 very ripe bananas, 1/3 cup small blueberries, 1 1/3 cups rolled oats, 1/2 cup quick oats, 1 teaspoon real vanilla extract, 1 teaspoon grapeseed/ extra virgin olive oil, 1 teaspoon honey, pinch of sea salt. I cooked them at 325F for 20 minutes on a greased pan (the first batch was hard to take off the greased foil). I like to get them as they're just starting to brown underneath. These are best hot out of the oven, and are meant to stay soft and chewy, so the term "cookie" is a little misleading. I made a small batch without salt or honey or oil and they still came out wonderful and tasty! How's THAT for a healthy cookie? =) But keep in mind, I've been eating a very healthy diet for the last half year so my taste buds are very happy with less salts and sugars.
