Step by step instructions:
- Preheat the oven to 180 degrees C and line a baking pan with parchment paper. Keep it aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, add the ripened bananas and mash them well with a fork or masher. You can also blend the bananas in a blender to get a smooth puree.
- When the bananas are well mashed, add vanilla essence and salt to it and combine well.
- Add quick oats to the banana mixture and mix everything until you get a thick dough. Add little more oats if you feel the dough is too loose.
- Now add chocolate chips or desired nuts to the prepared dough and fold until well combined.
- Take a small portion of the dough. Roll and flatten it to make a disc. These cookies won’t expand while baking, so keep that in mind while shaping the dough.
- Place them on the lined baking tray and bake in the preheated oven for 15 – 20 minutes or until they are set and light brown color.
- Let them cool completely and store them in the refrigerator.

Quick oats? Aren’t oats, just oats?

What is 1.4 cups?
