Easy Breakfast Cookie Ingredients
You only need a few things:
- Ripe bananas
- Oatmeal
- Raisins

Step-by-Step Breakfast Cookie Instructions
Not only are these breakfast cookies easy to make, but also you can do it the night before. The only tools you’ll need are a bowl, a fork, a spoon, a pan, and a baking mat.
First, peel the bananas and break them up into small pieces. Drop those into your bowl and mash them with the fork.

Next, pour in the oatmeal. Mix the mashed bananas with the oatmeal and set it aside to allow the oatmeal to become moist. Otherwise, you’ll wind up with crunchy oatmeal, which is fine if you like it that way.

Then, add the raisins and stir. If you don’t mind messy hands, just stick your hands into the mixture and squish it until it’s mixed. I like to keep food-safe disposable gloves on hand for this purpose. After I’m done mixing, I just take off the gloves and toss them.

Finally, scoop heaping tablespoons of the batter and form patties. Since these cookies don’t spread while baking, they come out of the oven in the same shape they went in.

Put them in a preheated oven and bake for 10 minutes. Allow them to cool for at least 15 minutes before eating or storing them.

The cookies come out of the oven looking almost like they did before they were cooked. However, they’re slightly browner.

If you want to vary the taste, try adding other ingredients. For example, spices such as cinnamon or apple pie spice add a different element of flavor. You might also like a splash of vanilla.

Ingredients
- 2 bananas, the riper the better
- 1-1/2 cups of uncooked oatmeal
- 1/4 cup of raisins
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a baking sheet with a silicone mat or parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, mash the banana.
- Add the oatmeal. Mix well. Set the mixture aside and allow it to rest for 10 minutes so the oats can absorb the moisture from the banana.

Notes
If your banana isn’t ripe enough, it won’t be as sweet. You may add 1 tablespoon of honey or maple syrup if you want to make these cookies sweeter.
You may substitute chocolate chips for the raisins if you prefer.
Store these cookies in an airtight container for up to 3 days on the counter or 2 weeks in the refrigerator.
