I love cookies, especially if they are healthy and don't make me feel guilty for snitchin'. In which case I will have two cookies with my coffee. And these have just a leetle bit of chocolate in them - mini chocolate chips, that is!
In a large bowl, cream sugar, softened butter, eggs and vanilla.
In a separate bowl, combine flour, baking soda, and cinnamon.
Add to cream mixture and mix.
In a separate bowl mash 3 ripe bananas and add to dough mixture.
Add oats, ground flax seed and mini chocolate chips.
Stir until well blended.
Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper. Drop by rounded teaspoonfuls onto cookie sheet.
Bakes at 375 degrees F for 10 -12 minutes.
Immediately remove cookies to wire racks to cool.
Tip: You can freeze these in a freezer bag and take out as needed. Just give them a few minutes to get to room temperature. Great for unexpected coffee guests!
