These Vegan Banana Oatmeal Cookies are flavorful, soft, chewy, and naturally sweetened with banana. And this one bowl recipe couldn't be any easier! They make a perfect breakfast, snack or dessert alike.
I think these cookies speak for themselves. Banana oatmeal cookies are one of those desserts that are so classic, they can just never get old.
They are perfect for those times when you want a healthier sweet treat, but don’t have that much time on your hands and don’t want to stand in the kitchen baking for hours.
Coming together in under 20 minutes and requiring just one bowl, they still don’t compromise on taste. Actually, that’s an understatement. These banana oatmeal cookies are so tasty, it’s hard not to eat the whole batch in one sitting.
Furthermore, these cookies require just a few ingredients and are naturally sweetened with banana, which also acts as an egg replacement (so, no need to prepare a flax egg).
They aren’t overwhelmingly sweet, which makes them perfect for a breakfast or snack on the go. I love eating them as a post-workout treat together with my protein shake.
