Ginger oat cookies

As I mentioned before, I make oat & banana cookies regularly, which I snack on during the week. In order not to get bored with them I add different ingredients to the basic recipe (seehealthy oat and banana cookies) - seeds, nuts, dried fruits, desiccated coconuts and so on. The result is always sugar-free, dairy-free, gluten-free, egg-free, so healthy and vegan. Most importantly really yummy and super easy to make. These ginger oat cookies are for those who love a bit of spice! Perfect with morning coffee or afternoon tea.

Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 2 ripe bananas
  • ½ tsp ground ginger
  • ½ tsp cinnamon
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • 2 Tbsp raisins optional
  • 2 Tbsp chopped crystallised ginger

Method
 

  1. Mash the bananas with a fork or blend them in a small blender.
  2. Add the other ingredients and combine until you get a malleable dough (you might need to add more oats). Let the mixture rest until the oven warms up.
  3. Turn the oven temperature to 180°C and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
  4. Make 8 medium or 10 small equal sized balls from the mixture and flatten these slightly between your palms.
  5. Put the cookies on the prepared baking tray, then bake in the preheated oven for about 10-15 minutes until golden brown.
  6. Cool the cookies on wire rack then transfer them to a jar or cake tin.
