Ingredients
Scale
1-1/4 cup gluten-free rolled oats
1 ripe medium banana, mashed (about 3.2 oz)
1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce
2 tbsp peanut butter or any nut butter
1 egg (or substitute with 1 flax egg)
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set it aside.
Combine all the ingredients: oats, mashed banana, applesauce, peanut butter, egg, vanilla, and cinnamon in a medium bowl. Stir until well-blended.
Use a cookie scoop or spoon to form cookie balls, about 1-½ to 2 tablespoons in size. Flatten them to be approximately ½ inch thick on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake for about 10 minutes or until the edges turn slightly golden.
Let cool before serving.
