Evie's Banana Cookies / Breakfast Bites (Vegan)

2 ripe bananas
1 C. organic rolled oats
1/2 C. raisins or other dried fruit of choice (cranberries, dates, etc.)
Anything else you want to add*

1) Mash bananas in a bowl.

2) Stir in oats, dried fruit, and nuts. (Chopped dates with walnuts is my favorite!)

3) Plop tablespoon-sized dollops onto a cookie sheet and bake at 375 degrees for 10-12 minutes. (I cook mine probably 20 minutes in the end. I like them kind of crispy and not as soft in the middle.)

*NOTE from Evie: I often triple this recipe. You can add anything you want (chopped apple, nuts, stevia, vegan chocolate chips, cinnamon, etc.)

*NOTE from Laurie: You can't really press these flat and cook them and cut them up later, as they'll be too mushy and moist in the end. They need to be cooked individually to get to the right amount of doneness. These freeze beautifully. Just freeze them individually and then put them in a ziplock in the freezer and pull a few out to take on the go. They will be a bit crumblier once they've been frozen.
