What Do People Have To Say About My Organization Course?
“This course was instrumental in helping me organize my space as well as my time. As a busy mom, I have a better grasp on what my days need to include so that I can enjoy my family rather than spend my time spinning my wheels cleaning up after everyone.”
“The Balanced Home Course helped me to be the “professional organizer” for my family! Simple steps to follow, check lists, printable labels, suggestions and worksheets will keep you on track to successfully maintain your own balanced home.”
“I am pretty sure I have solved more issues with the seven layers and clarity tool than I have in 6 months of therapy!! I think this course is going to help much more than my home. Thanks Amy!!!!”
When I realized I had been overcomplicating the idea of organization, that simplifying was a key component, then things really started to fall into place!”

Great recipe Amy, I actually love cookies that have banana and oats in them. Now I’m craving some lol, thanks.
Well then…these will be perfect for you! Thanks Randy!
Yummy, easy and diet-friendly? Yes please!
Not sure about diet friend with the chocolate however, at least no shortening or butter so 76%+ less fat…
We love this recipe! I tried it with chocolate chips, and craisins! They went like hot cakes! My four kids love them, and because there’s no added sugar, I don’t feel like I need to limit them! I’m going to try them with dried cherries next time! Thanks for the recipe!!
Lisa- Yay, so happy they enjoyed them! Dried Cherries would be delicious!
I made these with using the base-used Danton Light and fit vanilla yogurt vs applesauce and regular cocoa. I also have been trying to cut sugars, so I think it was a great start.
That is a good idea for a yogurt base!
Can you substitute raisins for the chocolate chips or would that be too sweet? I don’t eat chocolate either!
I think it would be a great substitution!! Cranberries would be good too and they are a little tarter than sweet!
Just watched a video like this the other day only it was 1 banana, 1C oats, and either raisins or cranberries. They also said you could microwave them for 2 minutes. I’ve tried it and my kids love the quick cookies.
These cookies look really good and I look forward to making them soon. Thanks for the recipe.
You are welcome! Hope you enjoy them!
Your recipe was delicious! I will definitely make them again. I used chocolate chips with a dash of cinnamon and a pinch of cloves.
What a great recipe–I’ve got to try these. I’ve been trying to cut back on the sweets too but sometimes just need a little something. This looks like a great alternative. And I could half the recipe so I wouldn’t be tempted to eat the whole batch, haha. Thanks for sharing–pinning and sharing this! :)
These are great! I added both semisweet chocolate chips and raisins. There is need for some type of sweetener. It’s a great recipe to play with. Thanks! Sharing this!

Thanks Bonnie! Didn’t know about this VeryWell Nutrition Calculator. I will have to start using this.
How long do you think these would stay fresh? Where do you store them ? (Refrigerator? )
They don’t last more than a couple of days. Store them in the refrigerator. I like to warm them up again before eating!
Going to bakes these today – by partner is gluten intolerant I am addicted to sugar may swop chocolate chips for raisins!
Always switch the raisins for chocolate chips :)
Wondering if you could substitute the banana for tinned apples…
These cookies look amazing and perfect for a sweet, but healthier sweet! Can’t wait to try! pinning and sharing!!!!
Just made them….easy enough to make…I added a little honey. If you can get over the rubber texture they are great!
Am currently breastfeeding and my daughter seems very sensitive to many foods even dairy and gluten. These are so so perfect. Am going to make with almonds and golden raisins.
These are great! I added some finely shredded coconut too, which worked out nice. Thanks for the recipe!!
These are in the oven as we speak – but we had no chocolate chips, so I used cocoa power, will see how they turn out! :)
Oooh! You will have to let me know how they turn out!
Thank you for this recipe. I have sensitivities and allergies to the things you mentioned above – and then some – so finding recipes like this are like finding a little gem in a pile of ordinary rocks. :)
Could you substitute quick oats for rolled? It’s what I have on hand.
Did you try the recipe using quick oats? Did it turn out?
Jodie- The quick cooking oats are thinner and break apart more easily causing recipes to be drier because of the fine oat flour. The old fashioned oats are thicker and should be added at the end of the ingredients and hand stirred into the dough to keep the oats from breaking apart. Hope this helps. Thanks and enjoy!
Yummy. Can’t wait to try. I think they might be good wirh a dollop of unsweetened peanut butter too.
Tried these tonight. I used a smidge of cinnamon, and the slightest splash of Mexican vanilla. I also split the chips part white and milk chocolate. Soooo good.
Thanks for this!
That sounds amazing!
I wanted a snack and wanted to see if I could find one that was healthy. These fit the bill perfectly. I loved them. I was so surprised how delicious they were with just 3 ingredients and no flour or sugar. I’m hooked! And now I don’t have to throw away my too-ripe bananas!
So glad you are enjoying the. I love them also!
They are in the oven and they smell delicious, yummy
Hope you enjoy them!
What an awesome find these were!! Currently in the oven and I am super excited ?
Hope you enjoy them!
Do you know how many carbs and calories are in one cookie? Thanks for the recipe. ?
I don’t sorry. Not very many though. That’s what I keep telling myself anyway. LOL.
I just added 2 small chocolate chunks per cookie on top and it is 71 calories per cookie (my batch made 12 cookies).
Sounds delicious!
Sounds delicious!
just pulled them out of the oven, and they are definitely different than choc chip cookies but for those like you with food sensitivities, I think this is a good nummy substitute.
I think next time I will sub out the choc chips for butterscotch, as I think that will go well with oats.
Butterscotch would be yummy as well! Enjoy!
These look awesome!! Do they freeze well or fall apart after thawing?
Have you tried this recipe with pumpkin?
I have not but, that sounds amazing. I will have to try it out next time I make these. Thanks!
So easy, so delicious! I made them with chai spices and just 2 small chocolate dark chocolate chunks ontop. Such a brilliant recipe!
Yummy!
I just made these, oh my, they are so good, and so simple! I’m keeping this recipe that’s for sure! :D I used mini chocolate chips, make really cute cookies.
So happy you enjoyed them! I will have to try mini chocolate chips next time.
Thank you for these. I love them. So good for kids too.
So happy everyone is enjoying them!
Has anyone tried grinding the oats to make it more of a flour? I’m thinking that would make it more like a cookie?!
I would love to know if you do this and how it turned out. Sounds like a great idea!
Thanks for the recipe. I hadn’t expected them to be so yummy. I added raisins and walnut and a bit of cinnamon…mmmmm!
That sounds yummy! I will have to try adding that next time!
My son was recently tested for allergies and we found out he has soy, wheat, dairy, egg and peanut allergies. So needless to say finding this recipe lifted my spirit so much…interested to see what other recipes you have.
I have made these cookies many times since first pinning and we love them. Even my husband who was sceptical about a healthy cookie loves them. I even add raisins, &/or craisins, and sometimes nuts. YUMMY!
Donna- So happy your family enjoys these cookies!
Could you make this after toasting the oatmeal first? Or maybe even parboiling it to soften it some?
Laura- I would think so.
Just made these, easy to make, followed your recipe exactly. We like them and will definitely make again. This is such a fast and easy recipe to make. Thanks for sharing.
Rachel- SO happy they turned out and you enjoyed them! Thanks for the review!
Loved these! Made a batch last night and making more today to share with a friend. :) On top of the ingredients called for, I added about a tbsp of crunchy organic peanut butter, .5 tsp vanilla extract, about a tsp of powdered peanut butter, and a dash of cinnamon and kosher salt. For the chips, I went with Lily’s stevia-sweetened dark chocolate. These have a wonderful texture. Will definitely be making these again!
Byenia- So Happy you enjoyed this recipe. I will have to try the ingredients you recommended. Thanks for you comment!
Made these today using 2 ripe medium bananas, added 2T PB2 as someone suggested. Did not like them at all. Weird texture and too much Strong banana taste.
Sorry they didn’t turn out for you. We have loved them.
Super easy & so tasty! I love that they are a “skinny” version. No guilt here! I am always looking for ways to use my bananas!
Kristyn- So happy you liked them! They are a favorite treat of mine!
Chewy & delicious!! I love the banana flavor with the oats & chocolate. They were quick & simple!
Natalie- Glad you liked them!
These were delicious! I doubled the recipe and made them a bit bigger. I also used dark chocolate chunks which I chopped up before adding. I kind of expected them to flatten out a bit as they baked, but they kept their shape. So if you want a flatter cookie, you’ll want to flatten them out some before you bake. Great way to use up old bananas.
So happy you enjoyed them. I love the changes you made. I will have to try that!
These are amazing!!! I added a bit of cinnamon and nutmeg (because I personally love it) as well as peanut butter chips and they were delicious!! Will definitely be making these again! Thanks!
Saudia- I will have to try the cinnamon and nutmeg. Sound like a great addition!
Delicious!! These are great for packing up & taking with us on road trips. My kids love them!
Kristyn- They really are!
What addicting cookies! Love banana flavor! I have everything on hand..guess, it’s time to make some!
Natalie- It really is an addicting cookie!
I love these. Have made them many times, but never with the chocolate chips. Thanks to you, my son just might give these a try. He’s nuts fir almost anything chocolate chips. Thanks for sharing.
Happy 2021
Ivory- Glad you love them too. The chocolate chips are a game changer with my kids for sure.
I’ve made these before, but without tge chocolate chips. Next time I’ll give that a try. Yummy!!!
Ivory- Hope you like it.
