Three Ingredient Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies

As usual, I was wasting time on Pinterest when I stumbled upon this three ingredient chocolate chip recipe. I immediately dropped everything I was doing to make them. As much as I like cooking, I get so excited whenever I hear the words "quick", "easy" and "healthy". 

They are  WAY better than I expected and I will be making them whenever I have a sweet craving. My plan was to east just one and freeze the rest for later... and instead I ate half the batch. Thank god for Zumba today. 

yummm.. look at these delectable, warm, misshapen cookies. I promise they taste way better than they look.

PS.... my kitchen smells amazing right now... 

Prep Time ~8 minutes
Cook Time ~15-20 minutes
Makes 8 cookies

Ingredients

• 2 really ripe bananas
• 1 cup quick oats
• ~1/4 cup chocolate chips
• splash of vanilla
• dash of pumpkin spice
• sprinkle of salt 
• Optional: walnuts, pecans, dried cranberries, raisins

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. 
2. Mash up the bananas, I used a potato masher and left very few chunks.
3. Thoroughly mix in the rest of the ingredients. 
4. Very important to prep your cookie sheet with a baking mat, wax paper or oil.
5. Drop the cookie dough in 8 approximately even circles on your cookie sheet.
6. Bake for 15-20 minutes, until the top and edges are golden brown.

Enjoy! 

Note: I did not use a baking sheet, oil, or wax paper and I had a fun time scrubbing the mess of my pan afterwards - so don't skip this!
