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.
