Equipment

• Baking sheet
• Medium-sized bowl
• Grater
• Fork
• Cutting board
• Measuring cups

Ingredients

  

1x2x3x

• 2 bananas ripe, mashed
• 1 apple, Red Delicious, or any sweet apple grated, approximately 3/4 cup
• 1 1/2 cup old fashioned rolled oats
• 1/3 cup raw pumpkin seeds
• 1 flax egg 1 tbsp flax meal + 3 tbsp water
• 1 tsp ground cinnamon

Instructions

 

• First, prepare your flax egg (mix 1 tbsp flax meal with 3 tbsp water). In the meantime, preheat the oven to 356°F / 180°C. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. In a bowl, mash the bananas. Add the flax egg and cinnamon. Mix it well.
  
• Next, add grated apple, rolled oats, and pumpkin seeds. Mix again until everything is combined.
  
• Use a 1/4 measuring cup to scoop the batter and drop it onto a prepared baking sheet. Use your fingers to flatten it slightly. Bake for 20 minutes. Transfer your cookies on a wire rack and let them cool for at least 10 minutes.
  
• Now, your soft breakfast cookies are ready to be devoured. Enjoy them with a cup of tea, coffee, or a glass of non-dairy milk. You could spread them with creamy peanut butter (awesome combo!). Keep them for 2-3 days, refrigerated, in a sealed container. Store cooled cookies in a freezer-friendly container in the freezer for up to a month.
  

Notes

• For this recipe, I used Red Delicious. Because the sweetness for these apple cookies will come only from bananas and apple, it’s important to use sweet or semi-sweet apple like Gala, Fuji, Golden Delicious, Honeycrisp apple.
• Peeling of the apples is totally optional. I didn’t peel it. Unpeeled apple will add texture and color to your cookies. And more fibre as well!
• Instead of pumpkin seeds, you can add sunflower seeds, chopped walnuts, almonds, or hazelnuts.
