Oatmeal Apricot Cookies
Since I'm on an apricot kick, I thought I'd bring you along for the ride. These chocolate apricot cookies are to die for. Not going to lie, I especially enjoy the chocolate chunks...something I don't usually include in my baking. I couldn't be happier with my decision to make the addition though. I found this recipe on Ascension Kitchen, and made a few adjustments to match my taste buds. Hope you enjoy these as much as I did!
>> Ingredients:
2 large bananas
1 cup wholegrain oats quick oats or rolled oats will not work
