By Kelly Pramberger February 10, 2016

Here is a super simple and delicious cookie recipe to enjoy this Valentine's Day! The goji berries add a nice pop of color to the cookies. Get the kids involved and have them assist with making these -- they'll probably love mashing the banana and stirring the mixture.

Ingredients:

  • 1 banana
  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • handful of goji berries
  • handful of dark chocolate mini chips
  • your favorite nut butter (we like almond)
  • cooking spray
Directions:
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  2. Mash the banana and combine with the oats, berries and chocolate in a mixing bowl.
  3. Form into small circles.
  4. Place on a cookie sheet misted with cooking spray.
  5. Bake for 15-20 minutes.
  6. When they come out of the oven, spread some nut butter on top.
  7. Let cool.
  8. Eat with your loved ones!
