Ingredients:
Cooking spray
1 large banana, mashed (½ cup)
½ cup chunky peanut butter
½ cup honey
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup rolled oats
½ cup whole wheat flour
¼ cup nonfat dry milk powder
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
¼ teaspoon baking soda
1 cup dried cranberries or raisins
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly coat two cookie sheets with cooking spray and set aside. In a large bowl, stir together banana, peanut butter, honey and vanilla. In a smaller bowl, combine oats, flour, milk powder, cinnamon, and baking soda. Stir the oat mixture into the banana mix until combined. Stir in cranberries.
Using a ¼ cup measure, drop mounds of dough 3 inches apart on prepared baking sheets. With a thin metal or small plastic spatula dipped in water, flatten and spread each mound of dough into ½ inch thick circles. Dough will expand to almost 4inches once baked. Bake, one sheet at a time, for 14 to 16 minutes or until browned. Cool completely.
