Preheat Oven
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. -
Mix Ingredients
In a bowl, mash bananas and mix with nut butter and vanilla.
Add oats, cinnamon, salt, and gently fold in blueberries (and any optional add-ins). -
Form Cookies
Scoop spoonfuls of dough onto the baking sheet and flatten slightly with a fork or your hand. -

💡 Tips:
-
Use very ripe bananas for natural sweetness.
-
If using frozen blueberries, don’t thaw—they’ll hold their shape better.
-
For extra protein, add 1–2 scoops of your favorite protein powder.
I can also give a no-bake version that’s even quicker and still soft and chewy if you want. Do you want me to do that?
