Peanut butter banana cookies with oats and choc chips.

These are vegetarian / vegan and rather tasty.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. 190 C gas 5

Line two baking sheets with parchment

3 large, ripe bananas, mashed
2 and 1/2 cups old fashioned, rolled oats
1 cup peanut butter (any type)
1 cup dark chocolate chips
1/4 cup raw honey
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 teaspoons cinnamon
1 tsp ginger
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon sea salt

 

Mash the bananas and mix with the honey, peanut butter and vanilla extract. Mix all the dry ingredients in a large mixing bowl until evenly combined. Combine the two and mix until the oats are coated.

 

Place heaping-Tablespoonfuls of the batter onto a parchment or silpat-lined baking sheet, 2 inches apart. Bake at 350 degrees F 190 C for 15 minutes or until set and golden brown around edges. Cool for 5 minutes on baking sheet. Transfer to wire racks to cool completely.

You can use golden syrup to replace the honey if you prefer.
