Servings: 24 cookies
Carbohydrates: 24g
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups whole grain flour use gluten free if needed
- 3 cups rolled oats use gluten free if needed
- 3 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 large hass avocado
- 1 large banana
- 1/4 cup avocado oil
- 1/2 cup plain yogurt
- 1/2 cup pumpkin puree
- 2 eggs
- 2 cups chopped dates or other dried fruit of choice
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
- Mix the dry ingredients together in large bowl.
- Combine the wet ingredients in a separate bowl and mix well.
- Mix the dry and wet ingredients together. Stir in the dates by hand.
- Line baking sheets with parchment paper. Using a 1/4 cup measure or standard size ice cream scoop, drop dough balls onto the baking sheet about 1 inch apart. (These don’t change shape very much once baked, so if you want flatter, rounder cookies, be sure to flatten them before baking.)
- Bake for 20-25 minutes until set and starting to brown. Let the cookies cool on a wire rack.
Notes
*Vegan recipe modifications: Eliminate eggs and yogurt. Increase pumpkin to 1 cup, and add 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce.
*High protein recipe modification: Replace 1/2 cup whole grain flour with 1/2 cup of your favorite protein powder.
