Cooking Club

This week children had the opportunity to cook banana oatmeal cookies. This recipe is easy and children friendly to do with the family. Their is only 2 ingredients to make this banana and oatmeal cookies. Which are banana and oatmeal.

Instructions to make banana and oatmeal cookies:

• 1 cup quick oats (see note)
• 1 large overripe banana  mashed to a liquid-like consistency
• milk if need

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with silicone baking mat.
• In a large bowl, add oats and mashed bananas. Mix with a fork until it becomes an evenly mixed, thick batter. If you plan on using add-ins like chocolate chips, mix them into the cookie batter at this time.
• Make 8 round balls out of the cookie batter. Place onto baking sheet, spacing about 2 inches apart. Gently press down on each ball so that it flattens into a round disc. Cookies will not spread much during baking, so keep that in mind when shaping and flattening your discs.
• Bake for about 15 minutes or until cookies are lightly brown and set. Cookie bottoms should also be brown and easily come off baking sheet. Let cookies cool before eating. Store uneaten cookies in the fridge.
