These peanut butter banana vegan cookies were a result of not having eggs in the fridge and wanting cookies but not wanting the enormous amounts of sugar that go along with it. While there is still some sugar (a little sugar is good in my book), I was able to cut it in half because of the banana in these cookies.Here’s to healthy-ish and guilt-free cookies! These peanut butter banana vegan cookies are also vegan because instead of butter, I used Crisco or vegetable shortening. Again, I know not the healthiest choice, but I feel like going this route enhanced the flavours from the peanut butter and banana.
