Preparation
- Peel a banana, cut it into slices and mash the pulp with a fork to obtain a puree.
- Mix the banana puree with the cinnamon and the homemade peanut butter.
- Add the chocolate chips, a pinch of salt, the oat flour and a pinch of baking powder. Work the ingredients to obtain a firm and compact dough. If the dough is sticky, add more oat flour; otherwise, if it appears dry, dilute the mixture with a drop of soy milk.
- Roll out the dough on a floured work surface, with the help of a rolling pin: obtain a thickness of 7-8 millimeters (it must not be too thin).
- With the special molds, get the cookies, then arrange them on a plate lined with baking paper.
- If you like, insert an unsalted "peanut" in the center.
The quick idea
If you have little time, you can avoid cutting the dough with cookie cutters: in this case, we recommend taking a teaspoon of dough, working it in your hands to get a ball, and crushing it slightly. You will get great tidbits!- Bake the sweets at 160 ° C (mode: ventilated) for 15 minutes.
The quick idea
These sweets can also be eaten raw: in this case, avoid the use of yeast and keep them in the fridge for a maximum of 3 days.- The peanut cookies are ready: they can be stored for a week, in a plastic box.
Alice's comment - PersonalCooker
Peanut biscuits are energetic treats, ideal to nibble after workout in the gym or to eat in the morning, for a healthy, satiating and light breakfast at the same time.
