Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 375 F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.

In a large mixing bowl, mash up your banana, then add the egg, nut butter, syrup, and vanilla. Use an electric mixer to blend all together.

In a second bowl, combine the flour, oats, coconut, flax, baking powder and baking soda. Add the wet ingredients to the dry in 3 additions, mixing well between each.

Using a 1/3 cup measure, scoop the batter onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between cookies. Bake for 12-14 min, until golden brown. Cool and enjoy!
