These are sooo good and yet so clean! They only require a few ingredients too, which was nice because I already had everything on-hand. I made them for dessert to hit my late night sweet tooth and can’t wait to have them for breakfast too. My boyfriend approved as well. 🙂 i’ll definitely be making these again!

Amazing!! So happy to hear, Lauren! 🙂

I was looking for something really clean, easy and yummy so with the ingredients I had on hand, I googled and found this recipe. I'm so glad I did! These cookies are amazing! I did make some changes: Instead of all oatmeal, used equal amounts oatmeal, almond flour and coconut flour. I didn't have chocolate chips on hand but chocoholic husband always has a stash of mini chocolate bars. So I chopped up some along with a bit of white chocolate. I like a crispier texture so I baked 3-5 minutes longer. Omg. So much yum and easy to customize. I might try adding cinnamon and cardmom - omit the chocolate - next time . Wonderful recipe! Thank you!!

Love this additions!! 🙂

Hello! I made these cookies in order to use a banana that was on the verge of being so overripe it was unusable. While the cookie is delicious it def needs a hit of sugar if you aren’t putting chips or something into it. But still delicious (and easy to make) so I will make these again and again, with some added sugar. Thanks!
