Ingredients
  

2 ripe bananas, thoroughly mashed

1 ½ cups rolled oats

1/2 cup almond milk (or any milk of your choice)

1/4 cup honey or maple syrup

1/4 cup almond butter (or peanut butter, based on preference)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

A pinch of salt

1/2 cup mini chocolate chips (optional, for added sweetness)

1/2 cup chopped nuts (such as walnuts or pecans) (optional, for extra crunch)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Mixture: In a large mixing bowl, combine the thoroughly mashed bananas, rolled oats, almond milk, honey (or maple syrup), almond butter, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and a pinch of salt. Use a fork or spatula to mix well until all the ingredients are evenly incorporated and form a sticky dough-like consistency.

    Add Extras: If you love a bit of excitement in your bites, fold in the mini chocolate chips and chopped nuts into the mixture for an added layer of flavor and texture. This step is optional but highly recommended for a delicious enhancement!

      Shape the Coins: Take a tablespoon or a cookie scoop to portion out the mixture onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. To achieve coin shapes, gently flatten each scoop with the back of the spoon. Aim for a thickness of about 1/2 inch to ensure they freeze well.

        Freeze: Transfer the baking sheet into the freezer and allow the oatmeal coins to freeze for approximately 1-2 hours, or until they are firm to the touch.

          Serve or Store: Once fully frozen, carefully remove the coins from the baking sheet and place them into a zip-top freezer bag or an airtight container. Store the delightful treats in the freezer, where they will remain fresh for up to 3 months. When you're ready for a snack, simply take a few out and let them sit at room temperature for a few minutes, or enjoy them right from the freezer for an icy treat!

            Optional Serving Suggestion: For an indulgent twist, spread a thin layer of almond or peanut butter between two oatmeal coins to create a scrumptious sandwich. This makes for an exciting treat that's fun to eat!
