Recipe by Bonnie G 2

Not the most beautiful cookies , and don't taste like a regular oatmeal cookie that's loaded with sugar, they get the sweetness from the bananas, they are good with a moist, chocolatey, chewy texture and they're made without any gluten, dairy, sugar, oil or eggs. While I must say, I'd prefer the regular version, this was enjoyed by DH and myself and I liked this healthier version and will be making it again
