  • 1/4 cup honey or maple syrup
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • A pinch of salt

Step-by-Step Instructions:

  1. Preheat Oven:
    Set your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and facilitate easy cleanup.
  2. Prepare Wet Ingredients:
    In a large bowl, mash the bananas until smooth.
  3. Combine Ingredients:
    Add the oats, blueberries, honey or maple syrup, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt to the mashed bananas. Mix these ingredients well to ensure even distribution throughout the batter.
  4. Shape and Bake Cookies:
    Spoon the cookie mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing the cookies a few inches apart. Flatten each spoonful slightly, as these cookies will not spread much during baking.
  5. Bake Until Golden Brown:
    Bake the cookies for 15-18 minutes, or until they are golden brown around the edges and set on top. Keep an eye on them to prevent overbaking.
  6. Cool and Serve:
    Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy them warm or store them in an airtight container for up to a week.
