Inspired by Papa Syd and seeing that this is a recipe which I don't have to change much, I made these. They go together so easily, and they're fantastic! The subs I made were: Zucchinisauce instead of applesauce, brown rice syrup instead of sugar and agave nectar, millet flour instead of whole wheat flour, rolled millet instead of rolled oat and chopped dried papaya instead of dried banana. Sounds like a lot, but actually I don't think it makes such a great difference. Maybe a bit spicier, because I had ginger added to the zucchinisauce to give it some zing, but otherwise I think it's pretty close to the original taste. They are moist and chewy and extremely filling - great for grab and go! Made 12 extra large cookies. Thanks for posting this recipe! -
I don't usually keep dried banana on hand but do have it available in some fruit-&-nut mix that I buy! Made the whole batch & shared them with my son & DIL ~ This cookie was right down their alley! All of us enjoyed the taste of these great cookies & I'll be making them again! Thanks for sharing the recipe! [Tagged, made & reviewed for one of my adoptees in the current Pick A Chef]

I live in the beautiful Sonoran Desert with my fiance and two labs. They are my guinea pigs right now as I'm writing a doggie cookbook; the neighbor dogs help out when they can... The weather here pretty much allows us to enjoy the outdoors all year round. We especially love camping, fishing, four-wheeling, concerts and BBQ's.
I enjoy cooking, (who would've guessed?) but find much more pleasure in baking. I fare well with the savory stuff, no complaints so far, Ahem, except for my noodle phase (but we won't go into that now). :D I love to try new recipes and experiment in the kitchen. It is a rare occasion if I don't alter a recipe in some way.
