Peanut Butter Banana Honey Oat Cookies

I wanted to create a cookie that was reminiscent of one of my favorite childhood sandwiches; peanut butter, banana, and honey on whole wheat bread. It is a comfort food with the right balance of sweet and salty, smooth and creamy, with just a touch of wholesomeness. It has been a hit with tasters, let me know what you think in the comments.

Makes 22 Large Cookies

Ingredients:

1/2 C Butter

1/4 C Peanut Butter

1/2 C Honey

1/2 C Sugar

1 Banana

1 Egg

1 tsp Vanilla

1 1/2 C Flour

1/2 tsp Baking Soda

1 C Oats

8 oz Peanut Butter Chip (optional but tasty)

Preheat oven to 375. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or a Silpat.

In a large bowl beat together butter, peanut butter, sugar, and honey until smooth and creamy. Add in banana, egg, and vanilla, beat until combined. Next add in flour and baking soda stirring until just starting to come together, then add in oatmeal and peanut butter chips.

Scoop 6 or 7 cookies onto parchment paper lined sheet pan using an ice cream scoop (I use this #20 Scoop for big cookies and to fill muffins and cupcakes).

Bake cookies for 11-13 minutes.

Sourdough Discard Chocolate Cake

I've made sourdough bread for years but recently started branching out and trying different things with my discard. I had made apple cheddar muffins with sourdough discard probably about 15 years ago, sourdough waffles like the ones I had tried in Las Vegas, but never really added it to anything else outside of bread products. I tried Chocolate Chip Cookies a while back with good results so it seemed natural to try a chocolate cake recipe. I tend to make my baked goods less sweet so I adapted a recipe I found to suit our tastes and topped it with a lightly sweetened peanut butter drizzle. This cake was moist and perfectly sweet. Ingredients: 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour 3/4 cup cocoa powder 1/2 tsp salt 1 tsp baking powder 1 tsp baking soda 2 eggs 1 tsp vanilla extract 3/4 cup oil 1/2 cup sourdough discard 1/2 cup granulated sugar 3/4 cup brown sugar 1 cup milk of choice 1/2 cup hot, fresh and strong brewed coffee Preheat oven to 350° and grease a bundt pan, set aside. In a large ...
