Ingredients
- 1 cup oat flour or pulse rolled oats in food processor
- 1/4 cup peanut butter smooth, all natural, no artificial sweeteners
- 1/4 cup finely crumbled crisp bacon, fat trimmed
- 1 banana very ripe, mashed
- 1 large egg
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350 F.
In a medium bowl, use a hand mixer to fully combine the oat flour, banana, peanut butter, egg, and crumbled bacon.
On a clean flat surface, roll out the dough mixture to about 1/3 inch thickness. Or roll them thicker, and cook a little longer.
Use your cookie cutter to cut the individual biscuits, or shape with hands, and place them onto a parchment-lined or non-stick cookie sheet. (If you need to lightly grease your cookie sheet, use a small amount of olive oil.)
Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden and dry.
Notes
This treat can also be made without the bacon.
