ARE BLUEBERRY COOKIES HEALTHY?
These blueberry cookies are made without any oils, butter, and refined sugar. That makes these healthy cookies dairy-free, gluten-free, and oil-free.
I am in love with how well-balanced they are:
Oats – a great source of fiber and high-quality protein.
Especially in the morning, oats help regulate blood sugar and get your day started on the right foot.

INGREDIENTS FOR BLUEBERRY COOKIES
To make this simple, healthy recipe, all you need is 6 ingredients that you probably already have in your kitchen!
Dough
rolled oats, gluten free
almond flour
almond butter
mashed bananas
baking soda
blueberries*
coconut sugar, optional **
*feel free to add more or less blueberries based on your preferences.

HOW TO MAKE BLUEBERRY COOKIES
Begin by preheating your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
First, mix your rolled oats, almond flour, baking soda, and coconut sugar in one bowl.
Second, I like to mash my bananas with the almond butter in another bowl.
Now, add the mashed banana and almond butter mixture to the dry ingredients and mix.
After that, gently fold in the blueberries.
Then, create small balls, 1-2 inches in diameter, and lay them out on a sprayed baking sheet.
Finally pop them in the oven and bake for 8-10 minutes, or until lightly brown.
If desired, drizzle them with the two-ingredient icing.

HOW TO SERVE BLUeBERRY COOKIES
My favorite way to have these cookies is with a warm cup of coffee. They are easy to pop in my mouth as I am chasing Ollie around– he is always getting his hands into something these days!
As a special dessert, I like crumbling them on top of vanilla ice cream or making an ice cream sandwich with an extra helping of almond butter on top – heaven!
HOW TO STORE BLUeBERRY COOKIES
These blueberry cookies can store in an airtight container in the fridge for 4-5 days.
Even better, they store in the fridge for up to 2 months. You know what that means? Double batch!
Simply thaw them out and warm them up in the microwave or air fryer to enjoy whenever.
