Hello! These 3-Ingredient Trail Mix Cookies are wonderfully simple to make and full of delicious flavour!

The cookies are chewy from the oats and naturally sweetened from the bananas. The trail mix adds crunchiness, sweetness, and a hint of saltiness to these filling cookies.

My trail mix contained peanuts, cashews, almonds, dried raisins, and chocolate chips. Feel free to mix it up with your favourite combination of nuts, seeds, dried fruits, and chocolate bites (if you like).

Overall, there are only a few ingredients (five all together if you use the two optional ingredients) and it’s super easy to prepare. All the ingredients are mixed in one bowl, shaped into cookies, and then baked until ready.

It’s great to have as a quick breakfast cookie, a snack on-the-go, or for dessert after a meal.

I hope you enjoy this delightful cookie recipe!

How do you make these simple trail mix cookies?

(Complete ingredient amounts and instructions in the recipe card down below)

• 

• 

In a large bowl, combine together the mashed bananas, quick oats, trail mix, vanilla extract (optional), and sea salt (optional).

• 

• 

Measure out ¼ cup of dough, roll it into a ball, and place it on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Gently flatten each cookie with your hand.

Bake at 350 degrees F for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is firm to the touch and the bottoms are lightly golden-brown. Let them cool slightly before eating.

Two quick tips: 

• Use ripe, soft bananas that are easy to mash up with a fork.
• Use a trail mix that has an assortment of ingredients such as nuts, dried fruit (like dried raisins, cranberries, apples, or bananas), seeds, and chocolate bits for extra flavour and texture in your cookies.
