Tasty Tuesday!

 Thank yall so much for all of the encouraging & motivating words from Sunday's post!

 

Although I have a million cookbooks in my cabinet, I tend to keep going back to Pinterest.  I do need to step away from the computer sometimes & go back to the delicious, home cooked meals that are the books - but without Pinterest, I wouldn't have made these two yummies last night!

I know it looks a similiar to last weeks post, but it is different!

Banana Oatmeal Cups

Ingredients:

3 mashed bananas

1 cup vanilla Almond milk

2 eggs

1 tbsp baking powder

3 cups old fashioned oats

1 tsp vanilla

3 tbsp mini chocolate chips (I had the regular size)

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.  Mix everything together, except the chocolate chips.  Spray your pan/liners.  Stir the chocolate chips into the mixture.  Now pour evenly into each muffin cups!  The original recipe said that it would make 15.  Of course (somehow), I ended up making a few more than the recipe said, ha!  Not sure how that always happens!

one oatmeal cup = 115 calories!

Skinny Chocolate Chip Cookies

Ingredients:

2 tbsp salted butter, softened

2 tsp vegetable oil

1/2 cup packed dark brown sugar

1 tsp vanilla

1/8 tsp salt

1 large egg white

3/4 cup all-purpose flour

1/4 tsp baking soda

1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Preheat oven to 375 degrees (or you can just do like I did & leave it on from your other baking frenzy, ha!).  Cream together butter, vegetable oil, & brown sugar.  Add the vanilla, salt, & egg white.  Mix to combine!  In a separate bowl, mix together the flour and baking soda.  Combine everything & mix, then mix in the chocolate chips real good.

Drop 1/2 tsp of dough onto non stick baking sheet.  I had to use two.  Leave a small amount of space in between each one.  Bake for 4-6 minutes, & then let cool on cooling rack!

one cookie = 30 calories!

Easy peezy, lemon squeezy.
