No Eggs, No Sugar, No Butter/Oil, No Flour, No Salt Cookies

Sometimes you just want something to snack on. Like a cookie!

Today my blog friend Diana Nana Diana Blogspot published her Banana Oatmeal Raisin Cookie recipe, and this evening I tried it with what I had in house. I will call my version the 5 No's Cookies.

This is what my cookies look like:

Maybe I should add another No. 

No Beauties!

And here is the recipe:

5 No's Cookies

2 large ripe bananas ( mine were frozen)

1 1/3 cups old fashioned oatmeal (any kind should work)

1/2 cup raisins

2 tablespoons peanut butter

1 teaspoon real vanilla flavoring

1/3 cup coconut

A handful of pecan halves

Heat your oven to 350 degrees F.

Mash the ripe bananas.( I thawed mine 20 seconds at a time in the microwave until they were "mashable.")

Mix the mashed bananas with the rest of the ingredients.

Drop by rounded teaspoons 2 inches apart on a greased cookie sheet. (I used my silicone mat on the metal cookie sheet.)

I baked the cookies first for 10 minutes, then decided to add 3 minutes. So total 13 minutes in the oven.

Let cookies cool before munching.

Recipe makes 20+ small cookie balls. Dough does not spread, but it may fall apart. Depends on how long you bake the cookies.

You can always add 1/3 cup chocolate chips for extra yumminess.

(And I do KNOW that the coconut is sweetened and there is salt and oil in the PB.)
