Wholesome, easy, tasty cookies. "These are pretty good. They’re not really like cookies so much as little piles of baked banana oatmeal with add-ins…which could be a good thing for breakfast or snacks."

Ingredients

1/3 c. Butter (I used salted)

3 Ripe bananas, pureed in blender or well mashed

2 c. Uncooked quick-cooking oats – important to use quick cooking. Old Fashioned probably tastes too “oat-y”

1/4 c. Skim milk – I omitted this completely because my batter was plenty moist

1/2 c. Raisins – or Craisins or chocolate chips

1 tsp. Vanilla extract

Preparation

1. PREHEAT oven to 350 degrees.

2. MELT butter or margarine in a microwave-safe mixing bowl.

3. ADD all remaining ingredients, but WATCH the milk because you may not need all of it.

4. LET stand for about 5 minutes, until oats are wet.

5. Lightly GREASE a cookie sheet.

6. For each cookie, SPOON out about 1 T. of dough and DROP it onto the greased cookie sheet.

7. BAKE the cookies for 15 to 20 minutes.

8. Let COOL on the cookie sheet for about 1 minute.

9. MOVE the cookies to wire racks or a towel to cool.
