Just discovered a delicious recipe for Oatmeal Cookies using 3 ingredients AND THEY ARE GOOOOOOOD!!

2 brown banana’s (Browner, the sweeter)
1.5 cups of oatmeal (I like the original whole oats, but instant will work too)
Dash of cinnamon

Optional add ins: (Which I do)
Handful of chopped walnuts
Handful of Chocolate chips or Raisins/berries

Mash the banana’s and oatmeal together so they are well mixed, add your goodies and bake on 350 F for 15 minutes. Excellent hot and cold! They should make a dozen and portion out the calories based on what you put in. I usually eat 1-2 about 15min before my workout in the morning and it's an excellent boost so that I'm not hungry during my cardio. :)

Other natural easy yummy recipes out there?

Edited--Oh, forgot to add, they are good right out of the oven, but they are also real good out of the fridge.

    Oh wow, I was sure this was going to be one of those godawful recipes "with three ingredients only; a box of cookie mix, something, and something else". OP's recipe sounds fantastic!

  • I call them two ingredient cookies because I make them with just 1 banana and 1 cup of oatmeal and sometimes the cinnamon but I don't count the cinnamon because sometimes I don't add it and they are still good.

    BUT, the other day I was making a big batch at work for a co-worker and changed up the recipe a bit. To three bananas I added a 4 oz container of unsweetened applesauce. I had to increase the oatmeal to 3 1/2 cups but the applesauce was an excellent addition.

    I've made it in the past with chocolate bits thrown in as well.

    My next batch is going to be bananas, applesauce, oatmeal, and protein powder. I'm out of powder (finally! as I didn't like the last two I picked up and have pushed myself to use them up before buying more) and I'm also out of bananas, I am thinking of getting a chocolate peanut butter powder and I think it would be good in these.

    hmmm... I wonder if instead of applesauce, chopped up super fine apple would be good? Future experiment.

    edited for clarity, though the way I ramble, clarity is subjective.
