Instructions

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

OvenPreheat

Step 2

In a medium sized bowl, mix together the banana, brown sugar, cinnamon, flour and oats. You can do this with a fork or with your hands (I did both). *this recipe will also work with an unripe banana it will take a bit more time to mix*

Step 3

Add carrot purée and mix well. It will create a thin dough but should still hold its shape.

Step 4

Place the batter onto a lined cookie sheet in 2 tbsp sized dollops.

Step 5

Bake for 15 minutes and let cool completely before transferring to a wire rack.

Step 6

Pair up 2 cookies that are similar shape. Frost one of each pair with the cream cheese on the bottom. Press the other cookie on top of the frosting to form a sandwich.

Step 7

Roll the filled cookie on the chopped walnuts until all edges are covered.
