Yes that’s right! Evvvvver! They are creamy and crunchy and have NO RUBBER bite which can sometimes happen with a banana based cookie. The secret to avoiding that with a banana flour and egg replacement is adding in baking soda and baking powder. It really helps give these Weight Watchers friendly cookies and cravable chewy texture.
These delicious cookies are also very low in calories so have a few! I like them as a breakfast on the go with a piping hot coffee. I never feel guilt because they are made from simple, clean ingredients. Its pretty much like having a little oatmeal and banana on the run.
- No artificial sweeteners
- No powdered substitutes
- All healthy measured fats the will keep you full!
Now if you want to use powdered PB 2 or a powdered version of peanut butter you certainly could as long as you make sure the mixture is thick and creamy like the original stuff. But honestly, at ONE Weight Watcher point per cookie — how much better can it get?
You will not need a mixer for this recipe. Just a bowl and a fork. I whip these up often when the grandkids come over. The 4 year old, Laney, loves scooping them out with the ice cream scooper. I feel good about serving them to them because of the healthy ingredients.
