Healthy 3-Ingredient Cookies

 
I love these "cookies" because they're easy, healthy, and have protein. I eat them for breakfast, or as a snack in place of a granola bar. They also serve as a vegan cookie option if you're looking to cut out dairy or animal products and still have a treat.
This recipe is from Tone it Up so all credit goes to them.
 
 
Ingredients
 
2 medium-ripe bananas
1 Cup of Oats
1 Scoop protein powder
(I also sometimes add a tablespoon of pumpkin puree to make them pumpkin-flavored! They're versatile so you could really add anything you want to)
 
 
Directions
 
Mash up your bananas with a fork really well. Once mashed, add your scoop of protein powder and mix all together. Then, mix in the oats.
 
Coat a cookie sheet with non-stick spray and drop the dough onto the pan with a spoon. For me this mixture usually makes about 7 cookies.
Bake at 350 degrees for 15-20 minutes (I have done 20 minutes every time)/until golden brown.
 
That's it! A "cookie" with protein, fruit, and oats!
 
Happy Friday! And don't forget to enter the giveaway I posted yesterday to win some amazing jewelry!
