I don't know about you, but I love cookies!
And I can tell you that I tried just about every possible and imaginable mixture!
I tested the white chocolate, walnut and chocolate, vanilla and raspberry cookies...
But the ones I prefer are those with oats, banana and cocoa powder.
The secret ingredient here is cocoa powder which makes them super chocolatey! Look how it makes you want:
And believe me, these chocolate cookies are just amazing!
You can also add an ingredient of your choice such as chocolate chips or nuts for more flavor and texture.
But just with these 3 simple ingredients, they are already delicious.
Without further ado, here is the delicious recipe for chocolate cookies with only 3 ingredients . Watch:
- 2 large ripe bananas
- 100g rolled oats
- 30g unsweetened cocoa powder
- An optional ingredient of your choice:chocolate chips, cocoa nibs, broken walnut kernels, raisins, shredded coconut, flax seeds, or vanilla.
1. Preheat your oven to 180°.
2. Cover a baking sheet with a sheet of baking paper.
3. Mash the two ripe bananas in a bowl.
4. Add the cocoa powder and mix.
5. Now pour in the oat flakes to form a paste. The amount of oats you need depends on the size of your bananas. Start with 75g and add more as needed. At first the mixture will seem dry, but after mixing for a few minutes with a spoon it will have a good consistency.
6. Add any additional ingredient to the batter. I chose to add a good handful of chocolate chips.
7. Now make 15 small balls with the cookie dough and place them on the baking sheet.
8. Flatten these small balls with your hands to give them the shape of "cookies". Be aware that the cookies will not flatten or change shape when baking.
9. Bake at 180° for 10 to 15 minutes.
There you go, your delicious cookies with only 3 ingredients are ready to eat :-)
It's easy, fast and so good!
Like most cakes, they are best served warm, straight from the oven.
But you can also keep them in a Tupperware or a Ziploc type freezer bag to eat them later.
- These cookies can also be made the classic way, without cocoa powder, which makes the recipe versatile. You can add raisins and cinnamon, cranberries with white chocolate, etc.
- To prevent the dough from sticking to your hands, put a little coconut oil on your fingers before shaping your cookies.
