This healthy cookie recipe is from Marlene’s great blog, The Jewish Hostess. It comes from Margo Shalom.
I made a few changes: I used maple syrup instead of agave syrup (just because I ran out of agave syrup); I added another half cup of oatmeal; and I added some raisins. These were delicious, but I found the taste of the banana to be a bit too prominent for my taste. Still, remarkably tasty for whole-grain-low-fat-and-no-refined-sugar cookies (well, no refined sugar if you use raisins INSTEAD of chips–but I think of chocolate as a health food
). I would add a bit of salt, though.
Margo warns that you need to refrigerate these cookies, but mine didn’t last long enough to make it to the fridge (hey, it’s a small batch).
Here is another healthy cookie recipe from the archives (a Moosewood recipe . . . ).
