3 Ingredient Banana Oatmeal Breakfast Cookies (no egg, no flour)

  • Author: Chef Mia

Description

Don’t throw out those spotty bananas! Make these quick and easy 3 ingredient banana oat breakfast cookies instead! This simple and versatile recipe requires no added sugar, no egg and no flour.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 bananas ripe and spotty, mashed, about 200g
  • 1 cup rolled oats old fashioned or quick cooking
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 F. Peel and mash bananas in a medium bowl with a potato masher or fork. Make sure they are well-mashed, with only small chunks remaining.
  2. Stir in rolled oats and cinnamon. Set aside for a few minutes to allow the oats to soak up the moisture. If the batter is very wet/thin still, add 1-2 tablespoons of oats.
  3. Line a baking tray with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. (Cookies will stick if you skip this step).
  4. Drop spoonfuls of batter onto baking tray and then shape with your fingers. Cookies do not spread out while baking, so shape them into the width and height you want them to be. This recipe will make about eight medium, 3-inch wide cookies.
  5. Add optional toppings, if using.
  6. Bake cookies for 17 minutes. *See notes for adjustments for smaller or larger cookies.
  7. Remove from oven and allow to cool slightly before enjoying.

Notes

If making small 2-in wide cookies, reduce cooking time by 3-5 minutes. If making large 4-in wide cookies, increase cooking time by 2-3 minutes.
Spices & Flavoring: Instead of cinnamon, try using 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract instead. Or, ¼ teaspoon of cardamom + ¼ teaspoon of cinnamon. 1 teaspoon of pumpkin spice seasoning is another good option.
Toppings: dark chocolate chips or shavings, walnut halves, chopped walnuts, pecan halves, chopped pecans, sunflower seeds, smear of fruit preserves, jam or jelly, berries, raisins, dried cranberries, flaxseed, coconut or wheat germ.

    Ridiculously Easy Lemon Raspberry Scones

    • Author: Chef Mia

    Description

    These heavenly, melt-in-your-mouth Lemon Raspberry Scones are not only ridiculously delicious, they’re also ridiculously easy and come together so quickly!


    Ingredients

    Scale
    • 1 cup heavy cream
    • 8 tablespoons butter
    • 2 cups all purpose flour
    • 6 tablespoons sugar
    • 1 tablespoon baking powder
    • ½ teaspoon baking soda
    • ½ teaspoon salt
    • zest of 1 medium size lemon
    • ½ cup fresh raspberries

    Instructions

    1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper (you'll need 2 sheet pans for smaller scones). Set an oven rack on the middle level of the oven. Measure 1 cup heavy cream and place in the freezer while proceeding with the recipe. (You want the cream to be in the freezer 10-15 minutes.)
    2. Place butter in a microwave safe bowl, cover with a paper towel and heat on high for 1 minute. If not completely melted, return to microwave for 10 second intervals till melted. Set aside to cool a bit while prepping other ingredients.
    3. Whisk flour, baking powder, baking soda, sugar, lemon zest and salt in a medium-size bowl. Stir to combine.
    4. After heavy cream has been chilled in the freezer for 10-15 minutes, combine it with the melted butter. Stir with a fork until butter forms small clumps or globules (see the picture above in the post).
    5. Add butter/cream mixture to dry ingredients and stir with rubber spatula until all flour is incorporated and batter pulls away from sides of bowl. The batter will be very thick, like a cookie dough. Don't over mix it, but you do make sure all the little flour bits are incorporated.
    6. Break each raspberry in half and sprinkle them evenly over the top of the batter. Stir once or twice, gently to mix the berries throughout the dough.
    7. Spray a cookie scooper (see notes above) or large spoon with non-stick cooking spray. Scoop up scones in mounds onto prepared pan. When you scoop, try to get some of the raspberries into each portion. Space the scones at least 2-inches apart to allow for some spreading.
    8. Refrigerate scones for at least 15 minutes or up to an hour. If you don't have room for 2 sheet pans in your refrigerator, put them all on one to chill. Then separate before baking.
    9. Bake for 18-22 minutes or until light golden brown. Transfer to a wire cooling rack.
    10. While the scones are baking, make the lemon glaze. Combine the powdered sugar, milk (or half and half) and lemon juice in a medium-size bowl. Whisk well until smooth to make a thick, but spoonable glaze. (If glaze is too thin, add a bit more powdered sugar, if too thick add add a little more cream.)
    11. Place a sheet pan or piece of foil under the cooling rack and spoon the glaze over scones to cover completely, allowing any excess to drip onto the sheet pan or foil.
    12. If you can wait, let scones sit for 15 minutes to let glaze set before serving.
