JUMBO Oatmeal Craisin Cookies 🩷
I can honestly say these are my new favorite cookies to make! They are so flavorful and satisfying, and the texture of them is perfect! I cannot wait for you to try them! ☺️ These jumbo oatmeal craisin cookies are a guilt-free treat that are perfect for breakfast, a snack, or a healthy dessert.
Ingredients:
- 1 ripe banana (mashed)
- ¼ cup pecan butter (or any nut butter – almond, peanut, etc.)
- ½ tsp vanilla extract
- ½ tsp ground cinnamon
- ¾ cup oats (I used gluten-free)
- ¼ cup dried cranberries / craisins
Instructions:
- Combine mashed banana, pecan butter, vanilla extract, and cinnamon in a bowl. Mix well.
- Add in oats and combine until everything is evenly incorporated.
- Fold in craisins.
- Let the mixture set in the refrigerator for about 10 minutes (optional but will help the mixture firm up and prevent spreading).
- Scoop the mixture onto a lined baking sheet and flatten each cookie slightly with your hand or a spatula.
- Bake in the oven for 15 minutes at 350 F (175 C).
- Remove from the baking tray, let cool on a wire rack, and enjoy!
This recipe makes two large cookies. You could also make 4-6 smaller ones if you prefer. Adjust baking time accordingly (smaller cookies may need a slightly shorter baking time).
Tips & Variations:
- Nut Butter: Feel free to experiment with different nut butters like almond butter or peanut butter for a different flavor.
- Sweetener: If you prefer a sweeter cookie, add a tablespoon of maple syrup or honey to the mixture.
- Chocolate Chips: For a more decadent treat, fold in a handful of chocolate chips.
- Vegan Option: This recipe is naturally vegan!
- Storage: Store leftover cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
