Ingredients

2 tbsp mashed banana (30 g) sub applesauce or pumpkin puree
1 tbsp + 1 tsp maple syrup (28 g) sub 1 tsp maple syrup for molasses for a deeper flavor
2 tsp nut/seed butter (10 g)
2 tsp any oil (10 g) sub more nut/seed butter, I used melted coconut oil for flavor
1/2 cup flour (60 g) gf all purpose if desired, oat flour works best, you can probably sub half of it for (plant-based) protein powder
1/4 cup almond flour (28 g) you can probably sub more oat flour
1/8 tsp baking powder
pinch of salt
(optional) nuts/seeds/chocolate to decorate or mix-in

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350F and line a cookie sheet with parchment.
In a medium bowl whisk together mashed banana, maple, nut butter, oil until well blended.
Add all other ingredients and combine until you have a soft non-sticky cookie dough. If too dry add a drop of water, if too wet and sticky add a pinch more flour and stir again.
Using your palms, shape into bars or cookies, and (optional) decorate tops how you like.
Bake 12-13 mins for the best soft-baked texture, let them cool completely.
Enjoy!
