MomStrong Recipe: Oats and Banana Breakfast Cookies
This family loves oatmeal and bananas – We eat them several days a week for breakfast, so this sweet on-the-go cookie was a nice change. It only takes minutes and it is the perfect recipe to get the kids in the kitchen to help because it doesn't require cracking eggs, measuring milk or oil. I also pack these in my pack for long runs or have these delicious treats post workout!
