Banana Oatmeal Cookies Recipe
Ingredients
Wet:
- 1 very ripe banana
- 2 tbsp maple syrup
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/4 to 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 2 to 3 tbsp raw or coconut sugar or use stevia or other sweetener
- 2 tbsp smooth almond butter or peanut butter
Dry:
- 1/4 cup (28 g) almond flour
- 1/4 cup (30 g) coconut flour
- 1 tbsp cornstarch or arrowroot starch
- 1/4 tsp (0.25 tsp) baking soda
- 1/2 tsp (0.5 tsp) baking powder
- 1/4 tsp (0.25 tsp) salt
- 1 cup (81 g) old fashioned oats use certified gluten-free if needed
- 2 to 3 tbsp vegan chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F / 190ºc
- In a bowl, mash the banana really well. Add the rest of the ingredients and mix until fully combined.
- I usually warm the entire bowl by keeping it near the oven (or microwave for a few seconds) to help the nut butter mix in faster.
- Add the almond flour, coconut flour, starch, baking soda, baking powder and salt and mix in.
- Add oats and chocolate chips and mix in. At this point you can also add cranberries, nuts chopped small, seeds, candied ginger etc.
- Oil or flour your hands and make flat cookies from the mixture and place on parchment lined baking sheet.
- Bake for 13 to 15 minutes until almost all golden. Cool completely and store in an airtight container on the counter for upto 2 days or refrigerated for upto a week..

These were DELICIOUS; my two boys and husband loved them, too!!! Can’t wait to make my second batch! Note: I didn’t want to use my hands to flatten the cookies, so I used a mini ice-cream scoop to place the ball mixture on to the parchment-lined baking sheet; then using only one small piece of wax paper over each mixture, I carefully flattened the cookie with a meat mallet.

Any suggestions for making a nut-free version of these? I’m not gluten free but I cannot have peanuts or tree nuts. ????
Richa
sunflower seed butter or any oil should work
Kele
Thank you! I was also wondering about the almond flour since, in another comment, you said swapping out all the almond flour would probably mess up the texture.
Richa
it should work ok with oat flour
Kele
Awesome—thank you!

This recipe is just what I was looking for.
I just tried it this morning. I added sultanas instead of chocolate and they were really nice
I’dd love to bake some more but I don’t any bananas. Can we use apple sauce instead?

These look great and I’d like to try making them. My husband is anti-coconut everything. Could you recommend a sub for the coconut flour that would still make them gluten free? Would all almond flour work?
Thanks!
Liz
Richa
yes all almond flour will work
Sue
These cookies are terrific. They remind me a little bit of the girl scout cookies with coconut and chocolate.
Alisha
These are amazing! I love how the banana flavour comes through.
Richa
Thanks!
Beata
Thank you so much for this recipe, I just can’t stop making them 🙂 I only use coconut flour, and usually and extra banana but it so yummy. They are in the oven right now.
Richa
awesome!
Why be vegan?
I put 6 spoons of vegan chocolate chips in it instead because I like them so much and they turned out great.
Yeah, I’m a guy, but I still cook.
Great recipe, thanks!
Richa
Awesome!

is it possible to swap the almond flour and coconut flour to whole wheat flour?
Richa
you want to keep a bit of the almond flour for the texture and the rest you can replace with whole wheat flour.
