Ingredients

• 1 cup (100g) old-fashioned oats

• 1/4 cup (30g) whole wheat flour

• 2 ripe bananas, mashed (200g)

• 1 egg

• 1 tsp cinnamon

• 1/2 tsp salt

• 2 tbsp chia or flax seeds (20g)

• 2 tbsp honey (30g)

• 1/4 cup (64g) peanut butter

• 1/3 cup (100g) sourdough discard

• 1/2 tsp baking soda

• 1 tbsp (14g) coconut oil, melted

• 2-3 tbsp (20-30g) chocolate chips
  

Instructions

1. Preheat Oven:

   • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
     

2. Mix Dry Ingredients:

   • In a large bowl, combine 1 cup (100g) old-fashioned oats, 1/4 cup (30g) whole wheat flour, 1 tsp cinnamon, 1/2 tsp salt, and 2 tbsp (20g) chia or flax seeds.
     

3. Add Wet Ingredients:

   • Add 2 mashed ripe bananas (200g), 1 egg, 1/4 cup (64g) peanut butter, 2 tbsp (30g) honey, 100g sourdough discard, and 1 tbsp (14g) melted coconut oil. Mix well to combine.
     

4. Incorporate Baking Soda and Chocolate Chips:

   • Add 1/2 tsp baking soda and 2-3 tbsp (20-30g) chocolate chips last. It's important to add the baking soda last to prevent it from activating early with the acid from the sourdough discard.
     

5. Form Cookies:

   • Scoop the dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, making 12 large cookies. You may need two baking sheets.
     

6. Bake:

   • Bake for 15 minutes, or until the cookies are lightly browned and set.
