These almond butter cookies made with “nice” cream (aka JUST BANANAS!). Yeah, it’s bananas alright. GF/low-FOD/no refined sugar, simple treat for those warm summer evenings!

Ingredients

  • Almond Butter Cookies
  • 1 Egg

  • 1 tsp Vanilla

  • 120g (1/2c) Almond Butter

  • 48g (1/4c) Almond Flour/Finely ground almonds

  • 1/4 tsp Salt

  • 1/2c Coconut Sugar (or Brown Sugar)

  • 2 tbsp Maple Syrup

  • 1/2 tsp Baking Soda

  • 50g (1/4c) GF Oats

  • 45g (1/4c) Chocolate chips/chunks/whatever

  • Nice Cream
  • 3 Bananas (peeled, cut into pieces & frozen)* See Note

  • 1 tbsp maple syrup (optional)

  • Add-in ideas: raspberries, peanut butter, chopped nuts, chopped candies

Directions

  • Peel & cut bananas, place into freezer for at least 1 hr.
  • Preheat oven to 160C Fan/350F. Prep baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Beat Egg, Vanilla & Almond Butter. Then add Almond Flour, Salt, Coconut Sugar, Baking Soda. Mix well to incorporate. Then add your Oats, Chocolate.
  • Bake for 10-15 min. Remove from oven and let cookies cool, then pop in freezer for a bit before making them into nice cream sandwiches.
  • Place frozen bananas, maple syrup into a food processor and blitz until the texture magically turns ice creamy! Blend in add-ins, if using.
  • Place nice cream between two almond butter cookies and put back in freezer to set.

Notes

  • The riper the banana, the sweeter the nice cream! But if your bananas are simply yellow this works too. Mine where and I added a drizzle of maple syrup when processing for a pinch of extra sweetness.
