Whole Wheat Banana Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies made with coconut oil
Healthy Banana Oatmeal chocolate chip cookies made from coconut oil instead of butter. These chewy, dairy free cookies taste pretty much like banana bread. I love these cookies, they are a perfect snack for when you have cravings. There is definitely less guilt eating these since there's minimal amount of sugar and is made with coconut oil. These cookies are soft in the middle and slightly crispy edge. I make sure I have extra ripe bananas for this recipe.
