Absolutely guilt-free cookies

somewhere, PA

There is nothing in here you won't feel good about eating. These are not sweet cookies but I sure do enjoy them. I calculated 78cal ea if you make 3 dozen

3 large ripe bananas - well mashed (about 1.5c)
1 tsp vanilla
1/4c coconut oil (barely warm - just so it isn't solid. Could substitute olive oil)
2 c rolled oats
2/3c almond meal
1/3c finely shredded, unsweetened coconut
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp baking powder
6-7 oz chocolate chips or dark chocolate bar, chopped

(I used high quality dark chocolate and think you could cut that in half if you want to save some $$)

Preheat oven to 350deg, rack in top 1/3

In a large bowl, combine the bananas, vanilla & coconut oil. Set aside. In another bowl, whisk together the oats, almond meal, shredded coconut, cinnamon, salt & baking powder. Ad the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and stir until combined. Fold in the chocolate. The dough is a bit looser than a standard cookie dough, don't worry. Drop dollops of the dough, each about 2 tsp in size, about an inch apart onto parchment (or silpat) lined baking sheet. Bake for 12-14min. Note: these cookies don't spread out.
