So I enjoy baking and have been baking more since I have been unemployed. I'm getting a bit worried because it's already been almost 6 months and I think my unemployment insurance might run out or get cut which will make things really difficult. Anyway, last week I baked Peanut Butter Cookies and the little one scarfed several cookies down daily. I think I managed to eat 1 or 2 and he practically ate all the rest by himself. While it's good to know he was eating wholesome ingredients, these cookies did have a lot of sugar - brown sugar and regular sugar. So I searched the net for a healthier alternative for a cookie and found this:
2 Ingredient Cookies
I had these old bananas and did not feel like making another Banana Bread which is also something that my little one will scarf down in seconds. These cookies just have Banana and Instant Oatmeal in them. I used 3 bananas instead of 2 and added more oatmeal to make up for it. I also added a tsp of vanilla and tsp of cinnamon along with a small box of raisins. I have yet to taste them but with no added sugar, I think these are a really good alternative for a snack for both kids and adults. They were so easy to make but I have yet to actually taste them...The true test will be if the little man likes them.
