SKINNY 3 INGREDIENT COOKIES


I  used to be so sceptical when I saw healthy version of cakes/treats because lets face it at the end of the day they are not going to taste like the real thing aka Marks and Spencers white chocolate chip cookies (from the bakery) - my personal fave!

After I work out I always make sure that I eat healthy all dayI try and convince myself to make the most of the 20 minutes I spent slaving away doing cardio. So that means saying a hard 'no' to most things sweet.

BUT I hate the word RESTRICTION and I don't view how I eat as a 'diet' but a lifestyle. I definitely am not going to sit mopping about being on a diet so finding healthier alternatives is a win-win!

These skinny cookies are completely guilt-free so they're perf for when you want that sweet-fix and won't interrupt with all the handwork you've done or if you're just trying to be healthy!


What's more they're so easy to make and only need 3 ingredients.

The secret ingredient here is BANANAS - never realised it but they're actually so versatile and amazing to bake with - so you can stay away from all that granulated sugar once in a while.


There's no refined sugar so I sometimes add milk chocolate chips/honeycomb so that they're a little bit more of a treat. But, as I say if you want to be completely healthy stick to 70% dark chocolate (full of antioxidants and BOOSTS your metabolism! ) 


All you need is 

1 Banana
1 cup of oats 
Dark Chocolate/ Raisin/Milk Chocolate (whatever you like really) 

Mash the banana - add the oats - stir in the chocolate -bake in the oven for 10/15 minutes at 180 degrees

My friend Pri made these and she can confirm that these are genuinely so easy to make! 


  

Enjoy!
