Oatmeal Raisin Walnut Cookies

Thanks to Chocolate Covered Katie, I tried my own version of her healthy cookies last week.  They were easy to make and disappeared within 24 hours;)   I had to use slightly more oats then she called for, otherwise they were too gooey. 

Not too sweet...kind of like banana bread.

yep, I ate all those.

Oatmeal Raisin Walnut Breakfast Cookies

• 1/2 cup rolled oats
• scant 1/2 cup applesauce or over-ripe banana (mashed)
• 1/4 cup peanut butter
• 1/4 tsp cinnamon
• 1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract
• 3 T raisins (or other dried fruit, or even chocolate chips)
• 3 T black walnuts
• pinch salt if desired (taste the dough to decide)
• 1 packet stevia

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Mash the banana with the nut butter, then add all other ingredients and mix until well-combined. Shape into cookies and bake for around 14 minutes.
