Hi Alisa! I just wanted to let you know that I tried the cranberry and Greek yogurt combo I told you about. Instead of the oil, I subbed almond butter. I used plain Greek yogurt in place of the banana, and about 1/4 cup dried cranberries in place of the coconut. I also used vanilla whey protein powder in place of the flour. They turned out great – Slightly less “cakey”, but still definitely good. In fact, I just made more this morning.. along with your cinnamon spelt bread recipe I am trying for the first time. My kitchen smells fabulous!

I made these last night and they are amazing! My two year old and I both LOVED them! Having liked them so much (plus the fact that I love experimenting), I did another variation of them today that was great – I added 1/4 cup of peanut butter instead of the oil, and chocolate protein powder instead of the flour. The banana/chocolate/PB combo was awesome – Not allergen free, but I’m sure even more modifications could be made to make it friendly

These are delicious! I also made a pumpkin version. Just substituted pumpkin for the banana and added a bit of extra honey and some pumpkin pie spice. YUMMMMMMM!!!!

These look great, I am new to a dairy/egg and wheat free diet…looking for “treats”. I will try this for sure.

Thanks.

these sound amazing! I have a few bananas “ripening” on my counter that would be perfect for this. And I think I have all the ingredients … YUM!

Andrea – Rolled oats will definitely work, but they don’t absorb the moisture as well as the quick oats, resulting in a more contrasting texture. In cakey items and in no bake treats, my family prefers the quick oats. If we only have rolled oats on hand, I often pulse them in the spice grinder for just a few beats before adding to the recipe to break them up a bit.
