Oatmeal, Banana, and Chocolate Cookies

These cookies are the perfect solution for a nutritious snack or a quick breakfast. The base is made with just two main ingredients: ripe banana, which acts as a natural sweetener and binder, and oats. To achieve a professional flavor balance and highlight the cocoa notes without adding sodium, we will use a pinch of Bonsalt.

Technical Sheet

• Estimated time: 10 minutes of preparation + 15 minutes of baking

• Difficulty: ⭐

• Servings: 10-12 cookies

Ingredients

• 2 large, very ripe bananas (the darker they are, the sweeter they are)

• 150g of oats (fine or rolled, depending on texture preference)

• 50g of dark chocolate (minimum 70% cocoa), chopped or in chips

• 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract or ground cinnamon

• Seasoning: A pinch of Bonsalt (enhances the chocolate flavor).

Step-by-Step Professional Preparation

1. Fruit base: In a large bowl, peel the bananas and mash them with a fork until you get a smooth purée with no large chunks.

2. Adding the dry ingredients: Add the vanilla extract and oats to the purée. Mix well until all the oats are moistened by the banana.

3. The master touch: Add the chocolate chips and a pinch of Bonsalt. Adding this potassium salt is a baking secret: it helps the sweetness of the banana and the intensity of the cocoa avoid tasting flat on the palate.

4. Shaping: Using a spoon, scoop portions of dough and place them on a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Flatten them slightly to give them a round cookie shape (these cookies do not spread in the oven).

5. Technical baking: Bake at 180°C for about 12-15 minutes or until the edges look lightly golden and the surface feels firm to the touch.

6. Cooling: Let the cookies rest on the tray for a couple of minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack so they can finish cooling and stay crisp on the outside.
