{Banana Breakfast Cookies}

This recipe is a new one I just tried over the weekend.  May be one of the easiest recipes in my arsenal thus far.  Super satisfying and healthy as can be, these banana breakfast cookies are a big hit.  I packaged them three per baggie and they're perfect for an on-the-go breakfast.  Oh, and did I mention there's only three ingredients?! Yes, that's right, THREE INGREDIENTS!  Doesn't get much better than that.


{Banana Breakfast Cookies}

4 mashed bananas, very ripe

2 cups quick cook oats

Dash of Cinnamon


{Directions}: Preheat oven to 350.  Mix ingredients together.  Spoon onto baking sheet sprayed lightly with cooking spray.  Bake for 15 minutes.  That's it!  The only WW Points comes from the oats! {1 WW point per cookie, if you make 15 cookies}

{Note from Mrs. Munana}: You can add chocolate chips, nuts or any other mix-ins you'd like.  I just made a very basic version, which is still delicious!



Right out of the oven! Yum!
 

Perfect with a cup of joe!

{Banana Oatmeal Bread}

Over the weekend I was in the mood to do some baking.  I had several leftover bananas that were perfectly ripe for making banana bread of some sort.  I looked up a few recipes on my Weight Watchers app for banana bread and ran across this one.  Luckily, I already had most of the ingredients needed for the recipe.  Our house smelled AMAZING while the bread baked in the oven, and my husband absolutely LOVED it.  It's super easy to make, delicious, healthy, not too sweet and the oats in the recipe make it pretty filling. 

{Banana Oatmeal Bread}

1 1/4 Cup Flour, White
1/2 Cup Brown Sugar
1/2 tsp Salt
1/2 tsp Baking Soda
1/4 tsp Baking Powder
3 tsp Canola Oil
1 Large Egg, beaten
2 Large Egg Whites, beaten
3 Large Bananas
1 Cup Old Fashioned Oats (uncooked)

{Directions}
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  In a large bowl, stir together dry ingredients (minus the oats).  Add oil and eggs, mix together.  In a smaller bowl, mash bananas.  Add bananas and oats to batter.  Spray loaf pan with cooking spray.  Pour batter into loaf pan and bake until loaf is firm to touch, 45 to 55 minutes.  Remove from oven and allow to cool. {10 Servings, 5 WW Pts per Serving}
 


 
Enjoy!
