Lainie says: "Just mash up two ripe bananas, add peanut butter, 1 cup of gluten-free oats, three tablespoons of chia seeds for extra fibre, give it a good mix then add a couple of your favourite chocolate chips. Mix one more time and then use a cookie scooper and place directly on some parchment paper inside your air fryer. 

"Using the back of the fork I mould them into cookies. Then, I place them directly in my air fryer at 176C for 10 minutes. When they're done they're crunchy on the outside and warm and chewy on the inside.

Ingredients:

2 bananas

240g oats

3 tbsp. chia seeds

85g peanut butter

Handful of chocolate chips

Method:

Step 1: Mash up two bananas and add 85g of peanut butter, 240g of gluten-free oats and three tablespoons of chai seeds. Mix together.

Step 2: Add a handful of your favourite chocolate chips and mix again. Use a cookie scooper and place them directly on parchment paper inside your air fryer.

Step 3: Use the back of a fork to mould them into cookies. Place them directly in the air fryer at 176C for ten minutes.
