ZERO BADDIES Peanut Butter Chocolate Chunk Cookies

You know a child's face when you put it in a ball pit?.....Well that's currently how I feel when you give me peanuts.

Preferably dry roasted because they taste like marmite - my fave. 

Because I'm NOT ALLERGIC ANYMORE!

NO SIREE.

Went and got tested didn't I!

Only Hazelnuts & Brazil nuts!

So I literally cannot get enough of these little nuggets of joy. Honey roasted cashews are my current fave!

I'm making up for 26 years of lost nutty time! So be prepared to be bombarded with nut-filled baked goodies over the next few months as I experiment with ingredients I thought I'd never be able to touch!

Anyway, enough about that, these cookies are the absolute BANANAS. I came across some cracking cookies on 'adaisyinthekitchen''s instagram which looked faaabulous and she'd made them with oatmeal instead of flour which I'd never thought of doing. So I've adapted her recipe to create these babies and I'm SO happy with the outcome, so thank you Daisy/Maria for the inspo! Go check out her Insta treats!

*Zero Baddies* because they're dairy free, refined sugar free & vegan.

Makes // 10 cookies

Prep // 10 mins

Bake // 15 mins

What you'll need //

3 tbsp peanut butter

3 tbsp date syrup

1 1/2 tbsp melted coconut oil

1 mashed ripe banana

100ml cashew milk (or milk of choice)

175g oatmeal

1tsp baking powder

60g raisins

100g dark chocolate (roughly chopped)

Preheat oven to 180 degrees C (fan) and line two baking trays with baking parchment. 

Whisk together your wet ingredients (top 5 ingredients).

Into a large bowl add all your other ingredients along with the wet mixture and stir well.

Onto the greaseproof paper, dollop generous tablespoons of mixture into circular blobs (technical term).

Bake for 15-18 mins and leave to cool.

Dunk into cups of tea or milk, close your eyes and say 'mmm'.

Place a fly swatter next to the tray so that you can swat away your boyfriend's hand when he attempts to eat 3 in a row...

Have you all had lovely weekends? Anyone managed any baking?

Big love,
