Ingredients
2 medium bananas (170g) mashed
15g (1.5 tbsp) of hemp hearts
34g (1/4 cup) of organic raisins
200g (2 cups) of rolled or quick oats. Or use 1/2 of each for a different texture.

1/8 - 1/4 tsp of sea salt
For flavour enhancement
Optional 2
1/4 tsp of pure vanilla extract

Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees.
Mash the bananas in in a bowl with a fork until they form a paste.

Using your hands, roll out small 27g balls onto a cookie sheet. Use a fork to lightly press each ball, shaping each into a cookie shape.

My comments
My goal when making dessert type snacks is very little to no added sugar. The original recipe called for maple syrup which would make these much sweeter.
