Ingredients
- 2 ripe bananas, mashed
- 1 cup fresh carrots, grated
- 2 cups whole wheat flour (or oat/almond flour for sensitivities)
- 1/2 cup unsweetened peanut butter (xylitol-free)
- 1 egg
- 1 tsp cinnamon (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
- In a bowl, mash the ripe bananas until smooth. Add the grated carrots, then mix in the egg and peanut butter until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, combine the flour and cinnamon. Gradually fold the dry mixture into the wet ingredients until fully incorporated.
- Shape the mixture into small balls or your desired treat shape, then flatten them slightly.
- Place the treats on the baking sheet and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden and firm.
- Allow to cool on a wire rack before serving.
Notes
Ensure bananas are ripe; they should be fragrant and slightly soft for sweetness. Letting treats cool properly enhances crunchiness.
