These are the fun parts, but there’s also another side – where the kids are at home all day and drive you nuts! And one of the most common phrases you’re going to hear are “I’m bored!” and “I’m hungry!” For the former, we suggest a boredom box, and for the latter, we have an unbelievably easy snack recipe – Whole Wheat Chocolate Chip Cookies! They’re whole wheat, eggless and free from maida, sugar and baking soda – it doesn’t get healthier than this!
Whole Wheat Chocolate Chip Cookies
Ingredients:
- 1 large or 2 small ripe bananas
- 3/4 cup whole wheat flour
- 1/4 cup chocolate chips (I have used both white and brown mini chocolate chips)
Method:
1. Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius. Line the baking tray with parchment paper or you can just grease it with melted butter or oil. Mash the ripe banana in a mixing bowl, either using a fork or potato masher.
2. Add flour to it and mix well.
3. Add chocolate chips and gather the mix together.
4. Scoop out equal portions of the mix onto the greased and lined baking tray. Spread them into round discs using back of the spoon ( Keep some space between the cookies)
5. Transfer the baking tray to a preheated oven and bake the cookies for 22-25 minutes at 180 degrees Celsius. Keep a watch after 20 minutes as the temperature may vary from oven to oven.
6. Allow the cookies to cool down completely on a wire rack. These cookies stay good for up to 2 days at room temperature in an airtight container. Serve with cold milk.
