Directions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
- Add the banana to a large bowl and mash well.
- Then add in the almond flour, applesauce, flaxseeds, almond butter, chia seeds, vanilla, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Mix thoroughly until well combined.
- Then stir in the oats and pumpkin seeds before.
- Finally, gently fold in the blueberries and chocolate.
- Using your hands, form small balls out of the dough and place them on a parchment-lined baking tray. Gently press down each ball to create a cookie shape, as these cookies don't spread on their own.
- Bake in the centre rack of the oven for 13 - 15 minutes, or until lightly golden.
- Remove from the oven and let cool for 2 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack to cool completely. Enjoy!
Notes
- * Use store-bought almond flour, or make it yourself by adding raw almonds to a food processor and blending until you achieve a flour-like consistency.
Storage
- Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days, or store in the freezer for up to 2 months to enjoy as a grab-and-go breakfast or snack!
- Either reheat to enjoy immediately or allow to defrost at room temperature if enjoying as a snack later in the day.

Discussion & Rating
These are my absolute favourite cookies of yours. I've been making them since you guys first posted it - at least a couple years now I think? I've even had friends ask for the recipe, they loved it! Such healthy ingredients too :)
These cookies are delicious and moist, of which the latter is attributed to banana and apple sauce. It’s amazing that they remain intact despite that the frozen berries thaw during baking. I used bilberries instead of American blueberries, as the former are smaller yet more filled with flavour and colour. Consequently, the batter became a bit difficult to handle whilst shaping the cookies. A trade off that was well-rewarded😋
