Isn’t it nice having another option for all those extra bananas? One thing is for sure, I never seem to be lacking in my supply of overripe bananas by the end of the week.

I found this yummy cookie recipe on Alicia Silverstone’s blog, http://thekindlife.com. Go to her blog for the original recipe, Healthy Oatmeal, and Raisin Cookies. I had to make a couple of changes to my food allergies. I substituted soy or rice milk for almond milk and used gluten-free old-fashioned oats. Feel free to use any milk or non-dairy milk product. I also changed the mixing order.

My husband likes chopped walnuts in these cookies, too. There are endless add-in options, that’s for sure. Try unsweetened coconut, any type of dried fruit, nuts, seeds, and other grains like quinoa flakes.

GF banana, oat & applesauce cookies are also a great idea for packed lunches. Pack them frozen, and by the time you eat them they are soft and chewy : )

Weight Watcher points for these cookies are just 2 Weight Watcher points plus each.

Notes

I store these in the refrigerator in an airtight container or freezer for longer storage. Let the frozen cookie sit for a few minutes before eating because they are a bit "icy" when completely frozen, unlike some cookies. 

These cookies are also great for packed lunches. Pack them frozen and by the time you eat them they are soft and chewy : )
