Banana Oat Breakfast Cookies

1. Preheat oven to 350ºF. In a large bowl, combine the banana, peanut butter, honey, applesauce, and vanilla extract.
2. In a separate bowl, combine the flour, oats, cinnamon, salt, and baking soda. Stir the dry mixture into the wet mixture until well-combined. Stir in the raisins or dried cranberries.
3. Prepare a large baking sheet with parchment paper (or spray with nonstick spray) or a baking mat. Drop the dough onto the pan using a 1/4-cup measure. Leave approximately 3 inches in between each cookie. Wet a spatula and flatten down the mounds of dough so they are about 1/2 inch thick.
4. Bake for 15 minutes or until browned.

Note: if you want your cookies sweeter, add another 1/4 cup of honey to the recipe.
