Chocolate Chip Peanut Butter Oatmeal Cookie Recipe
Though most people know that cookies aren’t particularly a healthy treat, most people don’t know what’s actually in the cookies they eat. Take these Tollhouse Chocolate Chip Cookies for example, you know the ones you can take out the fridge, bake them for 30 minutes and then wallah, the perfect chocolate chip cookie. Well just take a look at their ingredients:
You probably don’t know what half of these ingredients are. And some of them don’t even sound like food, I mean does “sodium aluminum phosphate” sound appealing to you? I didn’t think so.
Here’s a simple & healthy go-to cookie recipe that uses ingredients that you actually know.

1/2 cup oats
1/2 banana
