INGREDIENTS

4 Tbsp. gound flax seed

5 Tbsp. water

1 large ripe banana

1 tsp. vanilla extract

¼ cup maple syrup

2 Tbsp. almond butter

2 cups rolled oats

½ tsp. ground cinnamon

½ tsp. sea salt

¼ tsp. baking soda

1 Tbsp. Navitas Organics Cacao Powder

2 Tbsp. Navitas Organics Cacao Sweet Nibs

2 Tbsp. unsweetened shredded coconut

DIRECTIONS

Preheat oven to 350º. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easier cleanup.

In a small bowl, combine ground flax seed with water. Whisk and set aside for 5 minutes to congeal.

In a separate medium-sized bowl, use a fork to mash your banana. Once it's nearly smooth, add your vanilla, maple syrup and almond butter. Whisk together until a smooth consistency appears and set aside.

In a large bowl, mix oats, cinnamon, sea salt, baking soda, cacao powder, cacao nibs and coconut. 

Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until well combined.

Using a  size measuring cup, scoop dough out into mounds on the parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Repeat this step 5 more times for a total of 6 large cookies.

Place baking sheet in oven and bake for 15-17 minutes. Remove from oven and let cookies cool for at least 5 minutes before removing to a cooling rack.

Enjoy immediately or store in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
