3 Ingredient Banana Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies (Gluten-free, Dairy-free, Nut-free)

Sometimes healthy and easy are a perfect fit. Enter the 3 ingredient cookie- Easy, simple, and good for you.

Henry David Thoreau famously said, “Our life is frittered away by detail. Simplify, simplify.” I’d like to think these cookies were made after his own heart.

Ingredients:

  • 2 ripe bananas, mashed

  • 1 3/4 cup gluten-free rolled oats

  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips (I used Enjoy Life dairy-free brand)

Directions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

  2. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  3. In one big bowl, mix together the bananas and rolled oats. Stir in the chocolate chips.

  4. Scoop 2 Tbsp of mixture into a round ball and place 1 inch apart. Cookies will not spread.

  5. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until cookies are golden brown on top.

  6. Place on a cooling rack and enjoy!!

*Other options: add in unsweetened coconut flakes and a dash of cinnamon
