Ingredients:  
Ingredients:  
1 cup quick oats
1 large overripe banana, mashed to a liquid-like consistency
˝ cup chocolate chips (optional)

Optional: other add-ins of your choice—try dried fruit, chopped nuts, or other seasonings like cinnamon or nutmeg!
Directions:
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with silicone baking mat.
In a large bowl, add oats and mashed bananas. Mix with a fork until it becomes an evenly mixed, thick batter. If you plan on using add-ins like chocolate chips, mix them into the cookie batter at this time.
Make 8 round balls out of the cookie batter. Place onto baking sheet, spacing about 2 inches apart. Gently press down on each ball so that it flattens into a round disc. Cookies will not spread much during baking, so keep that in mind when shaping and flattening your discs.
Bake for about 15 minutes or until cookies are lightly brown and set. Cookie bottoms should also be brown and easily come off baking sheet. Let cookies cool before eating. Store uneaten cookies in the fridge.

My mom, Gail Swartzentruber, makes these for the grandkids and they love them! My son Lachlan loves to help with the process. They're relatively healthy and super easy to whip up!
