Instructions

Preheat oven to 335°F.
Line a baking tray with parchment. Set aside.
In a large bowl or bowl of a stand mixer fitted with paddle attachment, beat together nut butter, honey, vanilla, until smooth. Add applesauce or mashed banana, salt and cinnamon, continue to beat together until smooth. 1 min.
Add oats, baking soda and continue to mix until combined. Finish by adding the nuts, dried fruit, and any other pantry items you’d like. Mix until completely combined. Remove from stand mixer and cover with cling wrap. Place in fridge for 30 mins or up to overnight.
Scoop 1/8 – 1/4 cup sized balls of cookie dough. Place onto the lined tray and gently flatten using the bottom of a measuring cup or the palm of your hand. Place them about 1/2 inch apart as they won’t spread too much.
Bake the cookies for 12-15 mins until golden brown, and still soft.
Remove the cookies from the oven and allow to cool for at least 5 min before enjoying them.
