You know those days, where you just want to bake something? You have a pile of cookies, and other various baked goods, but you have the feeling that you need to bake?
..Or is that just me. Anyways, if you are anything like me, I constantly need to be baking something. So whenever the oven is on for anything (potatoes, casseroles…) I need to add something sweet to the mix.
This time: cookies.
See, the thing about this recipe is that it doesn’t make many cookies. Like, at all. This literally only made 5 cookies: all the cookies in the picture. And they have no butter or eggs, so it seems pretty healthy.
Yeah I know, I think I would prefer a non-healthy all out butter fest in cookie form, but this is great as a snack when you just want a healthy pick me up.

Oh no sorry! Forgot to add it to the directions. Thanks for catching that!
Was in the hunt for a “1 ripe banana” recipe and thank goodness for writing an article about “10 things to make with only 1 ripe banana!“
Have to admit I wasn’t sure at first, but loved your “easy, short list ingredients” approach!
It was yummy! I didn’t have any chai tea bags but used 1 tsp of my roasted chai mate loose leaf tea (bigger tea grains, but I tried it first without grinding finer), and it still worked. Taste is definitely reminiscent of a chai, but I think not as strong simply because I used a mate chai.
Your site is definitely a great find!!!
That makes me so happy to hear! Thanks Angel 🙂
