Gluten-free chocolate banana cookies

These gluten-free chocolate banana cookies are a delightful treat for those who are avoiding gluten but still want to indulge in something sweet. Made with bananas, coconut milk, and a hint of stevia for sweetness, these cookies are not just tasty but also relatively healthy. They come together quickly and make a perfect snack or dessert for any occasion.

Ingredients:

1.50 bananas
180g
6 tbsp coconut milk
90g
1 tsp stevia leaf sweetener
3g
1 oz coconut flour
27g
1 dash salt
0.40g
1 tbsp baking powder
16g
1 tbsp dry cocoa powder
5g

Instructions:

1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
2. Prepare Bananas: In a medium-sized mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas until smooth. Using a fork or a potato masher works well for this step.
3. Combine Wet Ingredients: Add the coconut milk to the mashed bananas and mix until well combined. The mixture should be fairly smooth.
4. Add Sweetener: Stir in the stevia leaf sweetener, making sure it's evenly incorporated.
5. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a separate small bowl, whisk together the coconut flour, salt, baking powder, and dry cocoa powder until well combined.
6. Combine Mixtures: Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring until a uniform dough forms. The dough should be thick but moist.
7. Portion Dough: Using a spoon or cookie scoop, portion out the dough onto the prepared baking sheet. Space the cookies about 2 inches apart. Flatten each dough ball slightly with the back of the spoon or your fingers to form cookie shapes.
8. Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges of the cookies are set and lightly browned.
9. Cool: Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes. Transfer the cookies to a wire rack to cool completely.
10. Serve: Enjoy your gluten-free chocolate banana cookies as a delightful, healthier treat!

Tips:

- Make sure the bananas are well-mashed to create a smooth batter.

- If you prefer a sweeter cookie, you can add a little more stevia or use a ripe banana.

- For added texture, consider mixing in some gluten-free chocolate chips or chopped nuts.

- Check the cookies at the 10-minute mark to ensure they do not overbake, as ovens can vary.

- Let the cookies cool on a wire rack to maintain their texture.
