no added sugar but nonetheless Very Happy chocolate chip cookies

oh, these are So Good! no added sugar but not lacking at all in sweetness --

no added sugar chocolate chip cookies :)






  • 1 cup oats
  • 1/2 cup toasted unsweetened coconut
  • 2 ripe bananas
  • a half tablespoon of molasses just for a tad of depth (1 1/2 teaspoons)
  • vanilla
  • i used 5 ounces of bittersweet ghirardelli's chocolate chips because it's half the bag -- you could a little less (but why :)
  • plus you can substitute 2/3 cup chopped dried fruit for the chips win/win/win

combine it all except the chocolate chips -- stir those in after the mixture is made -- i even used a freezer banana -- one that got over ripe and i just froze it to keep from tossing it -- then i found a similar recipe and added my touches -- wow -- these are good!

i made about 18 cookies
350 degree oven
12 minutes give or take

according to my calculations each cookie contains approximately 10 grams of sugar most of which is natural -- pretty cool!
