In reply to Tinah. It will help to sweeten and bind the cookies together. You can replace with additional mashed banana.

What is the function of the applesauce? Can I leave it out or substitute?

In reply to CJ. I would add no more than 1/4 cup. Enjoy!

Instead of chocolate chips, I'd like to add unsweetened cocoa powder for a little chocolate taste. How much can be added in order not to affect consistency of the batter?

In reply to Gargi. Hi Gargi! I think the dates may overpower the cookies since they are already one of the main ingredients. Instead, I would suggest using extra bananas.

Can I substitute the applesauce with date paste?

Just stumbled across this recipe while looking to clarify one I had been given shorthand from someone else- I’m loving the simplicity of the recipe and real ness of the ingredients without them being overly .. “crunchy granola mom.” Thanks for helping me find healthy and yummy recipes to feed my kids!

In reply to Karen pearce. Hi Karen, if you aren't using dates, this recipe would work with raisins. But It will not work with these ratios by completely omitting. If you are looking for a more traditional cookie/bar you may want to make my Peanut Butter Banana Bars--they are still a bit healthier, but don't have dates in them :)

I am making these this week. Thinking of adding powdered peanut butter to them. I love PB and banana. Not putting in dates. Wondering how much I should add and how it might effect calories per cookie? Or if you already have a similar recipe?
