Ingredients
- 1 ripe banana
- ½ cup (100 g) pumpkin puree
- 1 ⅛ cup (100 g) quick or rolled oats
- 1 teaspoon honey
- ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- a pinch ground ginger
- a pinch ground cloves
- a pinch ground nutmeg
- a pinch salt
- ¼ cup (40 g) dark chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F ( 180°C) fan.
- Mash the banana in a bowl with a fork.
- Mix in the pumpkin puree, honey, and spices.
- Add the oats and chopped chocolate, then stir until well combined.
- Form 10 cookies and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Flatten slightly if you like.
- Bake for 12 minutes in the preheated oven.
- Let cool slightly on a wire rack – best enjoyed while still warm!
Notes
- Oats: I used quick oats since that’s what I usually have on hand. Old-fashioned oats will make the cookies crunchier. Use whichever type you have at home.
- Variation: Stir in 2 tablespoons chopped, toasted pecans for extra crunch and a nutty flavor.
- Storage: These cookies taste best warm and fresh. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.
