Healthy Oatmeal Cookie

Ingredients
1/4 teaspoon of sea salt
1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon of baking soda
1/2 cup of gluten free flour
1 cup of dry oats
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/4 molasses
3 pkg stevia
1/4 cup of mashed banana (one small banana)
egg substitute equivalent of 1 egg
3/4 teaspoon of vanilla essence
1/4 cup of nuts or seeds (optional)

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350F. Prepare a cookie sheet either with non-stick spray or a parchment paper. Sift the salt, cinnamon, baking soda into the flour in a bowl. Stir in oats and blend together. In a mixing bowl, beat olive oil together with the molasses and stevia. Add in banana and egg substitute and beat well. Add in the flour mixture and beat on medium until a semi-stiff dough forms. This dough will be very slightly sticky. At this point, add the vanilla essence and nuts and mix well into the dough. Drop by tablespoonful about 3 to a row. Flatten to about 3/4 not too thin. You will probably get about 15 to a standard 9x13 cookie tray. Bake in the center of oven for about 10-12 minutes. When its done, remove from cookie tray and cool on a rack.
