These Oatmeal Peanut Butter Cookies are out of this world good! 

Fibre-rich oats make this filling cookie good for your heart.  Plus, they are made with banana puree instead of sugar and dark chocolate that give you a boost of antioxidants! 

The best part is, they have the perfect ‘balance’ of healthy fat, protein, and complex carbohydrates, which makes them the perfect treat, snack!

All you need for this recipe is 20 minutes in your hand, a handful of healthy ingredients and an oven to bake and you are good to go. 
Crispy on the outside, chewy on the inside, these cookies are totally addictive.

This recipe is low cholesterol, low sodium and low saturated fat in nature.

Enjoy them with a shot of espresso to trick your body into feeling fuller sooner.
