How To Make Easy Cookies With Only 3 Ingredients

By Leah Shindler at Emory University

What could be better than fast and easy cookies that are actually not bad for you? Probably nothing. These cookies will give you the sweet and healthy satisfaction you have been looking for.

My mom altered a recipe she had previously seen to create this even faster, more simple one. If she ever notices we have over ripe bananas in our house she puts them to use, and sometimes even leaves them to get soft for the purpose of baking these cookies. All you need are 3 ingredients and a short amount of time. Within a half hour, you can enjoy them.

3 Ingredient Chocolate Chip Cookies

1/2 cup chocolate chips (this can vary based on preference)

Preheat the oven to 350.

Step 2

Mash up the bananas in a bowl with a fork.

Add one cup of quick oats to the bowl and mix together.
