Well, today I have a great little recipe for you that's tasty, healthy, and easy to make...

Pure Fruit Cookies

3 medium size ripe bananas (about 1 1/2 cups)
1/3 cup favorite oil (I use coconut oil
1 tsp vanilla
1/8 tsp salt
1 1/2 cups rolled oats
1/2 cup uncooked oat bran or creamy-style hot cereal
1/2 cup chopped walnuts or almonds
1 1/2 cups coarsely chopped mixed dried fruits such as dates, apricots, and raisins

Preheat oven to 350F. Grease two large cookie sheets.

Mash bananas in large bowl until smooth. Stir in oil, vanilla, and salt. Add oats, oat bran, mixed fruits and nuts. Stir well to combine.

Drop by rounded measuring tablespoons onto prepared cookie sheets, spacing about one inch apart. Flatten slightly with back of spoon.

Bake in preheated oven until bottom and edges of cookies are lightly browned. Cool.
