Skinny Chunky Monkey Cookies Recipe

Skinny Chunky Monkey Cookies Recipe

 

When I was pregnant with my first baby, I gained 65 pounds.  I have always been a huge sweets fan and it was only worse when I was pregnant!  My poor, pregnant body knows all too well the effects a pint of Ben and Jerry’s Chunky Monkey can have on it.

This pregnancy I decided to try and eat only one or two treats a day (I can’t live a day with out dessert.  Trust me, I have tried and I am miserable!) rather than a whole batch. I decided I better try this healthy cookie recipe to lighten my load a little bit.  They only have 56 calories a cookie!  They don’t have any eggs or flour in them and are so easy to make.  If you taste the batter and decide it isn’t sweet enough, a little bit more honey and a little bit of semi-sweet chocolate chips will do the trick (don’t worry, I won’t tell anyone).

 

Keep in mind that these cookies are from a healthy recipe with natural sweeteners . . . if you are looking for a different kind of chocolate peanut butter cookie, be sure to check out our favorite ones here.

      You can replace bananas with pumpkin, although banana is sweet and pumpkin isn't you should put something in in to sweeten it up a little bit like honey. Hope this helps :)

      You could also replace the bananas with an egg and a bit more applesauce to bring to desired consistency...or try replacing them with other fruit purees like strawberry, pear, etc!

      As Canadian mom says pumpkin, but if you want something sweeter, maybe try smashed up sweet potatoes. Use them all the time as a substitute for pumpkin cake.

      Banana is used as an egg replacement in vegan cooking. Here is a link to some other replacements! Worth trying them out to see what works best for you with different recipes. They won't all automatically work for every recipe!

    I'm confused by the comments because 1 teaspoon isn't THAT small! Anyway, for me I came out with 78 cookies exactly. I gather the reason for these cookies is to eat healthier compared to the crazy processed calorie laden alternatives. For that, this is a great recipe. I would encourage people to venture out and try them, even with banana, even with only 1 teaspoon, just try it! Thank you for the recipe, my hubster will love them.

      Sunbutter. It is the closest you will get to texture and consistency of PB. It's made from sunflower seeds. And when you buy it there will be a layer of oil on top, be sure to blend it in or your sunbutter won't have the creamy-ness you are looking for.

        There are so many nut butters out there like cashew or almond would be great to use. It would be a tastier alternative if someone doesn't want to use peanut butter for whatever reason.

    I have these in the oven as I write this, I used quick oats and very over ripe bananas from the freezer, and the texture was similar to no bake cookies with the quick oats (this might be the solution for the texture issue and I didn't have to wait the 20 mins). I have high expectations for the cookies because the batter was so yummy. On the plus side, if the cookies do not turn out the batter can be eaten raw (no eggs YAY) as a Chunky Monkey pudding or as Chunky Monkey Overnight oats as a breakfast treat! Keeper for me either way, perfect "treat" for my 3 year old :)

    Made these last week and I didn't really care for them. I felt there were way too many bananas that left them super mushy and a off putting consistency. So I made them again yesterday but added some twists.
    1 banana
    1 pint raspberries
    1/3 cup unsweetened applesauce
    1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
    1/4 cup chopped pecans (walnuts or almonds would work as well)
    1 1/2 cups quick cooking oats
    2 squares, broken into bits, 90% cacao chocolate
    Drop these by the spoonful, bake at the same temperature for 12-14 minutes.
    It makes about 15(good sized cookies) with 74 calories, 12 carbs, 3g fat, 2g protein.
    Without the 2 squares of 90% cacao it would be 66 calories, 11 carbs, 2g fat, 2g protein.
    And without the nuts or 90% cacao it is 53 calories, 11 carbs, 1g fat, 2g protein.

    Anyways, thanks for letting me share! :D

    I found this recipe via Pinterest and made them this week. We love them! I think (like most things in life) it's a matter of expectations. If you expect this to taste like a chocolate chip cookie, you'll be disappointed, but as a healthy cookie alternative, these are great. Just enough to take care of a sweet craving. Attempts to cut out sweets never end well for us, so I'm always looking for something sweet we can have that's not terrible for us. I got 26 cookies out of it, but then I always make cookies too big.

    Oh my these we're horrible. My kids wouldn't eat them and neither would I. Thankfully I only baked one tray and then tried them. I was making these to bring them to a bridal shower. In order to not have wasted the ingredients I doctored up the rest with shredded coconut, cream of coconut and some sugar. Accidentally added the bad cookies onto the plate for the shower. Thankfully I told the guests and warned them. The two that accidentally got the o Reginald recipe cookies couldn't even finish them. Don't know how anyone could like this recipe. Sorry. Would rather have a few more calories and get some flavor.

    To all those who feel the cookie is a little bland - try adding a dash of salt to the batter. I always use a dash of salt in my cookie recipes (especially anything with chocolate) and it makes all the difference! I found it really knocked up the flavor on these as well - quite delicious for a guilt-free treat! :) And a nice recipe I can let the kiddos gorge themselves on without worry. :P

    I just made these today. I did not vary from the recipe except I added a little salt to mine. It made about 75 cookies. I am on weight watchers and they do the trick for just wanting a little something sweet. I like the banana flavor. Two cookies= 1 wwp+. I like the fact that they are natural. I think that in a world full of fat, calories, and preservative enriched foods we get so used to having a TON of sweetness in our foods.

    I'm pretty shocked by all of the negative comments for these cookies! I was SO excited to find a cookie that was sugar free, dairy free, egg free, gluten free, and peanut free (I substituted almond butter for the peanut butter)!!! After making the first batch already I can tell you that these cookies ARE yummy! No, they are not a straight across substitute for melt in your mouth chocolate chip cookies, but they are sooo much healthier. You just need to keep in mind they don't have sugar - so they won't be the type of sweet you're used to! If you don't like bananas, then this recipe probably isn't for you!

    Just got done making these and before freezing them I really like them! I love that it's a recipe that I can safely let my toddler help with and not worry when the inevitable happens and he sticks his fingers in the batter for a taste. We are doing B-Banana week for his home school and this is a great treat for him. We used a tablespoon for each cookie resulting in 36 cookies at about 40 calories each with crunchy peanut butter for more texture. And best of all my diabetic husband has something that works for him as a little treat!

    When I first tasted the batter I thought it tasted WAY too bitter, and so I added about 6 spoonfuls of sugar to it, along with a few handfuls of semisweet chocolate chips. I know this added to the calorie count, but it made the cookies way better! Also, you will want to freeze them for two reasons. One is that for some reason they taste much better that way, and I did try them both warm from the oven and frozen. Two is that the bananas in the recipe will go bad quickly if you leave the cookies sitting out on a plate. Overall, a good recipe! Even with the sugar and chocolate chips it is still a low calorie desert!

    Just made these and I used a small ice cream scoop to portion out cookies. I got 24 cookies out of one batch, but I made them to feed kids a healthy snack. They taste great, the kids love them and they are not filled with refined sugar! Will have to try the pumpkin option for an autumn flare and will have to look in to some type of nut free substitute for school friendly batches. Thanks for finding and sharing! love them!

    I had 6 very very ripe bananas and I wanted to try something besides the usual banana bread. I think these cookies turned out quite nice. The first batch I made up following the directions (though I forgot the vanilla!) and the kids liked them. The 2nd batch I made a few slight changes. I only used 2 T cocoa powder, put the vanilla in there, added 2T sugar and a 1/4 tsp cinnamon. I also used a TBS when dropping the cookies and I got 2 dz out of each batch. I prefer the taste of the 2nd batch and they taste better the next day. They are nice and chewy and have a nice hint of PB and banana with that slight cocoa taste.

    It is interesting that half of the posts say how great the cookies are and the others hate them. I really think it might depend upon how much sugar one normally eats, plus ingredient preferences. Since I have reduced my sugar intake my taste buds have changed and many things are now too sweet for me. I have a favorite breakfast fruit smoothie that my husband and I love but it contains no sugar. When I proudly gave it to my friend and her daughter they hated it and thought it was the worst smoothie they have ever tasted! Oh we'll, different strokes for different folks. Thanks for the recipe, can't wait to try it.

    How many cups of mashed bananas do you need for this recipe. As bananas come in so many sizes, I really don't know what size to buy. I think that would make a difference in the consistence of the batter. Thank you.

      You want about 1 cup of mashed bananas. That equals about 3 bananas.

      Just click on the MAGIC button under the picture and then click on NUTRITION. That will give you the nutritional value of the cookies. It's our new sister site MyRecipeMagic.com.

    Love these! Raw mix tastes great, cooked and eaten warm or frozen, they taste great. I understand some folks need a little more sweetness and that's fine too, just add your preferred sweetener to taste. I find the riper the bananas the sweeter the cookie. I also use raw cacao instead of cocoa powder. This one is a keeper! Thanks

    I made these cookie last week & they didn't taste good at all. In fact, I feel that it was a waste of good ingredients. :(

    Love these!!!! After reading reviews I added 2 tsp light amber agave and 1/2 dark chocolate morsels. They're 2pts for a 20 cookie batch and we'll worth it to be healthy and kick my sweet tooth a bit. Thank you six sisters!!!!!!

    Suggestion: It would be more environmentally friendly if you didn't suggest preheating the oven for a batch of cookies that is going to sit for twenty minutes before baking. Thanks for the recipe.

    Due to food allergies, I substituted cooked quinoa for the oats, vanilla almond butter for peanut butter, and per other reviews, added a bit of agave nectar. I thought they turned out pretty decent. Like someone else mentioned, if you are used to eating regular cookies you will probably not like these. I eat mostly paleo so to me they actually taste pretty good. My husband and 3.5 year old did not care for them!

    Tried these without chocolate chips to keep fat down. They were gummy. I would not make again.

    These are perfect for a Whole Food Plant-Based person! I used pure maple syrup instead of honey and added 2 Tablespoons of ground Chia seeds (or can use flax or hemp seeds). If you are used to eating refined sugars saturated fats, oils, these might not be pleasing as others reviews state. But I will be making a version of these for a long time! Thank you!
