Ingredients
  

  • 2 large extra ripe bananas, mashed
  • ½ cup natural peanut butter or almond butter
  • ¼ cup pure maple syrup
  • 1 large egg or flax egg (for vegan option)
  • 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
  • 1 cup oat flour
  • 3 tablespoons flaxseed meal
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 cup old fashioned rolled oats
  • 2 to 3 tablespoons hemp hearts
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds
  • cup semi-sweet chocolate chips plus extra for on top of cookies
  • cup chopped walnuts optional
  • flaky sea salt for sprinkling

Equipment

  • baking sheet
  • Mixing Bowl
  • Cookie scoop

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper; set aside.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the mashed bananas, nut butter, maple syrup, egg, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth and well combined.
  3. Stir in the oat flour, flaxseed meal, cinnamon, baking soda, and kosher salt until just combined. Then fold in the rolled oats, hemp hearts, chia seeds, chocolate chips, and walnuts if using. Allow the dough to rest for 5 minutes to thicken.
  4. Using a large cookie scoop, portion about 3 tablespoons of dough per cookie onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing cookies about 2 inches apart. Top each cookie with a few extra chocolate chips.
  5. Bake for 10 to 14 minutes, until cookies are set but still soft to the touch.
  6. Remove cookies from the oven, sprinkle with flaky sea salt if desired, and let cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy!

Notes

Using overtly ripe bananas takes your cookies to another level of sweetness that even the pickiest eaters can't resist.
