Vegan Peanut Butter Banana Breakfast Cookies
Ingredients
- 3 ripe bananas mashed (1 heaping cup)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup peanut butter
- 2 Tablespoons coconut oil partially melted.
- 2 cups quick cooking oatmeal
- 1/4 cup peanut flour
- 2 tablespoons ground flax seed
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- OPTIONAL- 1/4 tablespoons coconut sugar organic cane sugar, or brown sugar
- OPTIONAL: dark chocolate chips
- OPTIONAL: Protein Frosting 2T protein powder + 1/2T almond butter + almond milk (add until you hit your desired consistency
Instructions
- First, preheat oven to 350F and line 2 cookie sheets with parchment paper.
- Then, in a large bowl, mash 3 bananas. You’ll want your bananas to be very thin and runny. Next, add in vanilla, peanut butter, and coconut oil.
- Add in quick cooking oatmeal, peanut flour, ground flax seed, and baking powder, and mix until combined. At this point, I suggest tasting the batter. Don’t worry, there’s no eggs, this batter is completely edible! If you’d like, add in 1/4 cup of your choice of sweetener, do it now. I opted not to do this because I personally don’t like super sweet cookies. You can also add chocolate chips, too 😀
- Next, spoon 2 tablespoons of batter into your palm. Roll into a ball and place on cookie sheet. Then press into a cookie shape. These cookies wont rise or expand much. Repeat.
- Bake at 350 for about 20 minutes or until they begin to brown.

CHOCOLATE is in my ideal breakfast cookie!!!! Can I just eat the brookies for breakfast 🙂 Maybe add a nana in top and call it good!
I took this out of the oven this morning and quickly proceeded to eat two. They are oh so good and satisfying. If someone had told me these were actually good for me, I would have laughed in their face, had I not made them myself. I can see myself making these over and over
LOVED LOVED LOVED
(I didn’t have flaxmeal so subbed with an egg – so not quite vegan)
Also subbed almond meal for the peanut flour (I don’t think I’ve ever bought peanut flour…increased the amount ever so slightly to make up for the wetness of the egg)
YUM!! These look amazing – can’t wait to try them 🙂
This recipe sounds absolutely delicious and perfect to grab when I’m in a rush to get to work! I think I’ll try the suggestion of subbing protein powder for the peanut flour and, of course, will top with protein frosting. Thank you!
Let me know how it turns out! I am eager to see what they are like with protein powder subbed!
LOVE LOVE LOVE this, Lee! Definitely making a run for some nanners tonight so I can bake a couple batches and have on-the-go breakfast and/or snacks! Loved your tip about even trying protein powder instead of peanut flour. Definitely trying that!
!!!! Let me know how it goes. Especially if you use protein powder!
ohmahgerd YUM. I never get to bake anything with brown spotty bananas because that’s how I prefer to eat them. ha.
NASTY. Leigh Leigh. That’s NASTY! 😀
Can you tell me what kind of protein powder you like to bake with and make frosting with? Thanks!
Ah yes! I forgot to add that. I use the Designer Whey Brand. I literally have all of the flavors because I used to be on their recipe creation team 😀 DesignerWhey.com! SO TASTY!
Hey Lee! If I don’t have peanut flour, can I substitute with other flour? Whole wheat or garbanzo bean? Do you know if it’s an equal parts substitution? What I’m trying to say is: I can run home and make these for lunch if I don’t need to get peanut flour. 😉
😀 I am almost positive it will work with any flour. The peanut flour was to add additional protein and peanuty taste. I bet it would even work with protein powder, since it’s such a small amount!
Thank you, ma’am! Have a great day!
You’re writing an ebook?!!? Omg I’m buying it! Also if my freezer broke I would have enough breakfast food to feed a small country. You cannot even comprehend how much there is…
HAHAHAHA. That’s why I wish you were my neighbor. You make me breakfast, I make you dessert….and the world is happy.
Breakfast cookies….I make somewhat of a breakfast….ball? lol- protein powder, oats and other extras- I guess IF I flatten it out it could be breakfast cookies?
I LOVE making a protein frosting and legit have tried out so many powders to NOT find a dud! what brand did you use? I jumped on it before it was hashtag trending.
Aw yeah boomsauce. I use Designer Whey. I’m not sure if they sell it out yonder in Australia. I need to make a list of shiz to bring you in the Spring 😀
You killed it with those pictures. AND the recipe! You’re my hero(ine) 🙂
Awwww stop. Your photos are pretty dang good lately. I’ve been keeping my eye on your blog 😀 #truth #imastalker
GIRL, I’m pretty sure #imthestalker. Thanks for the compliment. It means a lot coming from you!
These look really delicious, and guilt free! We are always so busy in the morning, and these would be a fast way to start the day on a healthy note.
TOTES MCGOTES. And for a snack mid-morning…it really is perfect…and chewy 😀
Short of chocolate cake for breakfast…these sounds pretty good, except with almond butter for me!
HAHAHA. Chocolate cake. Yes. How about you make me a healthy chocolate cake recipe…so healthy I can eat it for breakfast!
I LOVE the sound of these! The banana/peanut butter combo is my jam! And who doesn’t want to eat cookies for breakfast??
This mah jayummmmm.
These look and sound delish! I love that they are made with whole ingredients.
!!!! They aren’t super duper sweet, but I wanted to stick with whole ingredients because it’s breakfast!
