Background

These raspberry oat cookies are vegan, dairy-free, sugar-free and high in fibre. I used gluten-free rolled oats but you can use regular oats if gluten is not a problem for you. These healthy cookies are perfect for breakfast, afternoon tea, picnics, parties or snacking. You can also add some chopped nuts to the batter – almonds, cashews, and hazelnuts would work well.

Ingredients

3 ripe bananas
1.5 cup rolled oats (gluten-free if needed)
1 tsp vanilla essence
1 Tbsp cocoa powder
1 cup chopped strawberries

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 180°C and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
In a bowl, mash the bananas with a fork.
Add the oats, vanilla and cocoa powder, then mix well. Add more oats, if the mixture is not soft.
Let the mixture rest for a few minutes, then add the raspberries and mix again.
Using your hands, make about 10 equal-sized balls, then press them between your palms. Place these on the prepared baking tray.
Bake in the oven for approx. 20 minutes until golden.
Let them cool on a wire rack, then serve.
