    Banana Breakfast Cookies (Vegan & Gluten Free)

    Who said cookies for breakfast?!

    Sometimes all I want is a green smoothie and vegan cookies for breakfast! Or a king coffee with cookies, like a little morning treat. So why not make healthier Banana Breakfast Cookies?! They won’t spike blood sugar (hello, happy hormones) and they make the perfect light breakfast or little snack to hold you over.

    They’re only lightly sweetened with coconut sugar and made with healthy whole-food ingredients like mashed bananas, gluten free rolled oats, almond butter, cinnamon, pepitas, sunflower seeds, raisins and coconut flakes! The chewy and chunky texture is the best part. So satisfying.

    This is a better option than a big sugary muffin if you’re trying to keep blood sugar balanced which is the first step in balancing hormones. I know there is a time and place for sugary treats but first thing in the morning I really try to fuel my body in the best way I can with healthier options!

    So the batter will feel very wet but that is how it should be. All you do is mix all the ingredients in a bowl and bake them away! I love how they turned out. Drizzle with a little almond butter and oh em geeee!!!

    ALSO – if you are seed cycling, feel free to swap out the seeds for the ones that line up with the phase you are in! Read more about that here.

    Description

    Healthier, low sugar vegan breakfast cookies that are easy and quick! Delicious paired with a green smoothie or coffee


    Ingredients

    Scale

    1 flax egg (1 tablespoon flax + 3 tablespoons water)

    2 ripe bananas, mashed

    1 tablespoon almond butter (or any nut/seed butter)

    1 tablespoon melted coconut oil

    1 teaspoon vanilla extract

    2–3 tablespoons coconut sugar

    1/4 teaspoon sea salt

    1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

    1 1/4 cups gluten free rolled oats

    1/2 cup raisins

    1/3 cup coconut flakes

    1/4 cup pepitas

    1/4 cup sunflower seeds


    Instructions

    Preheat oven to 350° F. Line a baking sheet/tray with parchment paper.

    Make the flax egg by mixing the ground flax seed with water and set aside for 10 minutes until it gels up.

    In a large bowl, start by mashing your ripe bananas with a fork until they’re creamy.

    Add the almond butter, melted coconut oil, vanilla and flax egg and mix. Stir in the coconut sugar, sea salt, cinnamon and mix again. Now stir in the rolled oats, raisins, coconut flakes, pepitas and sunflower seeds. Mix together until cookie batter is well combined.

    Scoop 1-2 heaping tablespoons into your hand and gently form a cookie. Place on cookie tray and lightly press down to flatten. 

    Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until edges are slightly brown. Remove from oven and allow to cool for a few minutes. Store in an airtight container. Enjoy!

      Hi Shannon! I’m allergic to bananas. Think applesauce with work as a substitute?

    Did your hair stop growing? Mine was stuck at the Did your hair stop growing?

Mine was stuck at the same length too for a while. But now I know your scalp is an extension of your skin and needs to be nourished and taken care of in order for healthy hair growth. The scalp ages 6x faster than the skin on your face 🤯 it needs love and care, too. Especially if you want length and strength.

My hair oil is unique and made of different botanicals, antioxidants, omegas and nutrients your scalp is craving. If your hair is struggling but you eat healthy, you may want to consider a hair oil to fill in the gaps. I’ve noticed new thickness and growth from it being nourished and fed nutrients from within. The SHINE is the most surprising part!!! It’s honestly jaw-dropping. It keeps getting better because it’s a LIQUID VITAMIN for all hair types.
 
Figuring out the right custom plan for you is key. I want to help customize a plan for you because everyone should experience these results.

And definitely my dream come true to be home with her all day. Never missing her much needed cuddle moments. I need her just as much as she needs me. Nothing else matters, really. I don’t need to be a girl boss or CEO of a company that separates us all day. I’m a mommy first and I sell shampoo, second. It’s actually the best of both worlds because I get to raise her and also have an income of my own.

If you’ve been yearning for something like this, there’s no better time. The holidays are coming!!!

    Are you chasing the new shiny object? There will Are you chasing the new shiny object?

There will always be some new trend or way to make money online. But are they sustainable? Or just a way to make a quick buck? One thing we all have in common is we all want to build a long-term sustainable business to make an income from home! We all sell shampoo, we all want different things for our families and we all took a leap of faith in starting our beauty businesses. And we all started somewhere. Instead of chasing the newest ways to make money, it’s so much more authentic to share something you love and use daily 👄🧴🫧🧖‍♀️

    A DREAM ☁️☁️ You guys. This is a dream co A DREAM ☁️☁️

You guys. This is a dream come true. Getting better hair (completely frizz free 🙂) and making an income. I love what I do and the best part is it’s all from my phone and with my baby by my side. No daycare or nanny, it’s all from my phone. Now you do have to put in time and work for it to work, but it’s such a blessing. I’m so grateful every single day.

If you love beauty products and have a go-getter attitude, we need to talk!! I want to teach you how to do this.
