tips to make Clean Eating Strawberry Banana Oatmeal Cookies

  • Use very ripe banana for more sweetness and moisture.
  • Chop strawberries small so they mix well and do not make the dough too wet.
  • If dough is too wet, add a little more oats. If too dry, add a splash of milk or another small mashed banana.
  • Use parchment paper or a silicone mat to stop sticking.
  • Do not overbake; remove when edges turn light golden.

variation (if any)

  • Add a handful of chopped nuts or seeds for crunch.
  • Stir in a small amount of cinnamon or nutmeg for extra flavor.
  • Swap strawberries for blueberries or chopped apple.
  • Replace honey with maple syrup to make it vegan.
