Feed the Monster Cookies
The fun part about making these healthy cookies is that each time you can add something new: dried fruit, protein powder, coconut butter, coconut chips, dehydrated nuts, and seeds, etc. Get creative with these little buggers!
Equipment
Ingredients
- 2 bananas
- ½ cup raisins
- 8 dates
- ½ cup coconut oil
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 Tbsp aluminum-free baking powder
- 1 cup almond butter
- 4 cups gluten-free rolled oats
- 1 cup shredded coconut
- ¼ tsp sea salt
- 1 cup chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350*F.
- In a high-powered blender, puree bananas, dates, raisins, coconut oil, and vanilla until smooth.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine all the rest of the ingredients.
- Pour blended mixture into dry ingredients and stir well with a spoon, making sure to scrape the bottom of the bowl to get everything well mixed.
- Using a cookie scoop, scoop the dough uniformly onto a Silpat lined baking sheet, about 12 cookies per sheet if you use one this size.
- Bake 10-12 minutes or until nice and brown but still chewy. These also freeze well.
