These banana & coconut breakfast cookies are wonderfully soft and chewy and super easy to make. Better still, they’re free of nuts, dairy, grain & refined sugar but packed with fibre, healthy fats, protein, and adaptogens, too!
I enjoy these cookies with little or no coconut sugar and 100% cacao pieces. However, if you have more of a sweet tooth, you can increase the coconut sugar and use chocolate chips.
