Our second annual
Cookie Swap for a Cause is almost here! This time of year has plenty of sugar and fat-laden sweets, so for those who want a healthier option, Jen Dorman from
Consume The Good and
Boston Bachelorette shares this simple recipe for a healthier cookie using oats, banana, and sweet potato.
Healthy Cookies
Ingredients:
1 sweet potato
1 banana (ripe)
Oats (can be quick or traditional)
Cinnamon
Directions:
- Bake the sweet potato until soft.
- Scoop out the innards.
- Mix with mashed up banana.

ReplyDeleteHi CJ,
ReplyDeleteI do not have a picture from last time I made them but if I have time to get the ingredients and make them in the next few days I will certainly share a picture for you. I'll try my best!
