Ini Biskut Bayam are healthy banana oatmeal cookies with an extra boost of green from fresh spinach! These soft cookies are perfect as pre-workout cookies or as a healthy kid snack. I love sneaking veggies in my kids’ food, and after the baby carrot cookies, these Spinach Oatmeal Cookies are an alternative for you to try.
I love baking with spinach and hiding this delicious veggie, like my Tortilla Bayam, Spinach Muffins, Atau Lempeng Bayam Pisang. Spinach cookies are simple, healthy cookies made without any flour and loaded with nutrients from spinach, banana, and oats. They are ready in di bawah 30 minit and taste absolutely delicious!
Bahan dan Pengganti
- Oat Pantas – I don’t recommend old-fashioned rolled oats for this recipe because its coarse texture makes the cookies dry and dense.
- Mentega kacang – Natural creamy peanut butter without added sugar or added oil. This is the best to make healthy peanut butter banana oatmeal cookies with spinach.
- Sirap maple – or any liquid sweetener you like.
- Pisang Lenyek – ripe bananas are great because they add extra sweetness.
- Daun Bayam Muda – Fresh is essential!
- Serbuk penaik – for a soft texture.
- Ekstrak vanila – untuk rasa.
- Cip coklat – optional, but kids love that addition!
I love to add 1/3 cup of chocolate chips to these healthy kid cookies, but any of the below are great add-ons as well:
- Kacang Walnut Cincang
- Kelapa Cincang
- Kismis Kering
- Cranberries
- Benih Labu
How To Make Spinach Cookies
These Spinach Oatmeal Banana Cookies are easy to make in just 10 minutes. All you need is a food processor and a few ingredients that you probably already have.
- First, preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly oil the paper with coconut oil. Set it aside.
- Next, mash the ripe bananas and measure exactly 1/2 cup. It’s important to be accurate because too much banana flesh makes the cookies ultra wet.
- This amounts to about 2 small bananas. If you have extra mashed bananas, freeze for later and use them in my tropical smoothie recipe.
- Place the mashed banana, peanut butter, maple syrup, and vanilla extract in the bowl of your food processor. Using the S blade attachment, process the mixture until smooth.
- Finally, transfer the wet ingredients into a mixing bowl and combine with the dry ingredients until a wet cookie batter forms.
- Scoop one tablespoon of dough on the cookie sheet and leave half a thumb of space between each cookie.
- Slightly wet your fingers and press down each dough ball to flatten.
- Bake the cookies in the center rack of your oven for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown.
- Cool the cookies down on a cooling rack.

Pada Suhu Ambien

These cookies are phenomenal! Even my granddaughter loves them. I will double the recipe next time because these didn’t last a day. So glad I found a plant based cooking website that uses normal, every day ingredients!
Thank you so much for the lovely feedback! I created the recipe for my son when he was 2 years old, he still love it too.
These are amazing! I didn’t want to like them as much as I do. Now I’m making them again adding chopped walnuts and dates.
