These better-for-you cookies are vegan and gluten-free and don’t have any added sugar! If you use a banana that is brown and ripe and sweet you won't even miss the sugar.
There are a lot of other reasons to make these cookies by Dada Eats, but we love that they live in the freezer and make them a perfect grab-and-go sweet treat.
If you do miss the sugar, you can definitely add a tbsp or two of maple syrup if you’d like it sweeter, but we don’t think you’ll need it if your banana is extra ripe!
Banana Bread Freezer Cookies

Chocolate Coating

Instructions
- Mash ripe banana and mix it with the nut butter and vanilla extract until smooth.
