Instructions to make Peanut butter and banana oat "cookies":
  1. Preheat the oven to 180˚c. Mash the banana in a bowl and add the nut butters. Mix until well combined.
  2. Add the honey, vanilla, salt, sugar and cinnamon and stir again.
  3. Blitz 1 cup of the oats in a food processor for a few seconds (they don't need to fully blitzed, just slightly ground up). Add to the bowl with the other quarter of un-blitzed oats and mix well with the other ingredients.
  4. Line a baking tray with parchment paper and use a desert spoon to measure your balls of cookie "dough". It will be a sticky mixture, similar to flapjack dough. Use your hands to form the cookies into a ball and place onto the parchment, evenly spaced apart. (the cookies wont spread as much as regular ones).
  5. Cook for about 15 minutes. Check them after this time - they should start to crisp on the top and should sound hollow when tapped on the bottom. If not, give them another 5 minutes or so. You can turn the oven down a little if they are browning too much.
  6. Enjoy with a nice cup of tea! (or a hot choc like my kiddies!)
