BM #85 Week 1 Day 1 -
This week I have chosen to highlight some 3 ingredient goodies. I fell in love with these oatmeal banana cookies. The best part is, there is no added sugar, it is whole grain, with no additives, and simple yet healthy for breakfast.
I calculated that 3 such cookies with orange juice or milk would be perfect for an adult breakfast.
My little one did this research for a persuasive essay and she was assigned the topic, "Should milk be provided at school ?" After that, she started reeling out reasons why we should not drink milk, the effects of milk on our bodies, etc.
This is why she said she would eat cookies and freshly squeezed orange juice. Henceforth in our house it will be 'cookies and orange juice' instead of 'cookies and milk'.
*Some chopped nuts can go in there as well.
Ingredients -
Rolled Oats, coarsely powdered 1 cup
Bananas , 2 big overripe
Chocolate Chips, mini 1 Tbsp
Method Of Preparation -
Mash the bananas in a mixing bowl. Add in the rolled oats and mix it in. Fold the mini chocolate chips.
Preheat the oven to 350 °F.
Prepare a baking tray by lining it with parchment paper.
Using a tablespoon scoop out the oatmeal dough and pat them onto the prepared baking tray. Allow an inch between the cookies.
Bake for 23-25 minutes until the tops get golden.
Remove from the oven and enjoy them warm. Store them in an air tight container for about 2 days on the counter or refrigerate for a week.

Harini lot of people are giving up milk , it is a big debate . The cookies look fantastic and even I would prefer cookies and juice .
Even i would like to munch this cookies with orange juice, just with 3ingredients they came out fabulous Harini.
Oh, that's a big thing for a kiddo to research and decide..those cookies look yum! Though I have read similar articles, it's so tough to decide after being part of the system for so long!
Aah...the new debate on whether or not milk is necessary for us. Have been reading up a lot on it, and as of now, milk is still a big part of my life. The cookies sounds delicious.
It's definitely hard to give up the milk from the diet :-( , but those cookies sounds super easy and i'm sure it would tastes equally good with orange juice.
Wow!! So easy and so healthy! Definitely will give it a try.
Harini, I just found out a month ago that milk is not working well for me and I am having lot of GI issues. I have not been having regular milk for a month and use lactose free options for my coffee. I guess I will be eating these cookies with orange juice as well :)
Fabulous job done. Did not think that I can make cookies with three such nutritious ingredients too. looking mouthwatering and a great snack for kids.
Omg those cookies look so healthy and tasty. I too bookmarked them from somewhere for the 3 ingredient theme but could not make it. With orange juice, it must be tasted delicious.
Healthy ones for sure. I have tried these for another BM under the same theme and was surprised to learn that the conventional ingredients are not always needed to prepare cookies.
