Chocolate Cookies!!! Vegan. Gluten free. Nut free. Oil free. Processed sugar free. Regret free!

Chocolate Cookies!
Ever wake up early, completely refreshed and desperate for cookies? Breakfast toaster pastries?  Donuts?  Well, just in case you do, I came up with this completely plant based, oil free, gluten free, nut free, high protein cookie with NO processed sugar.  It took 15 minutes to prepare and 12 Minutes to bake.  I got a baker's dozen out of the deal and took them to work. They all got eaten. I think they're good. Lets see what you think!

CHOCOLATE COOKIES

1 Cup rolled oats.
2 Bananas.
3 TBS Cocoa powder.
12 Pitted dates.
1/2 tsp vanilla extract.
2 rounded TBS Hemp seed hearts.
3 TBS Maple syrup.

Put everything in your blender and puree it for 2 or 3 minutes. Let it sit for 10 or 15 minutes until it stiffens into a thick dough. On parchment paper, using wet hands, form 12 to 15 cookies and flatten them a little. Bake at 400 degrees for 12 minutes. Let them cool and enjoy with the non-dairy beverage of your choice!
