🔥 How to Make Oatmeal Raisin Cookies
Step 1: Preheat & Prep
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
Step 2: Mix the Ingredients
In a bowl, mash the ripe bananas until smooth. Stir in oats, raisins, cinnamon, vanilla extract, and applesauce. Mix well until everything is combined. If using nuts, fold them in now.
Step 3: Shape the Cookies
Scoop tablespoon-sized portions onto the baking sheet and gently flatten them with a spoon.
Step 4: Bake to Perfection
Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the cookies are set and lightly golden. Let them cool for a few minutes before enjoying!
Step 5: Enjoy!
These cookies are perfect warm out of the oven, or stored in an airtight container for a few days.
