One day at a time.....: Teacher's Favorite School Snack-Banana Nut Bread Cookies

OK, school snack, breakfast cookie with yogurt, afternoon snack, after dinner treat-any time is good.

I first posted this recipe back in 2011. It's received quite a few pins on Pinterest and I sure hope others are loving these simple cookies as much as I do. Back then I was making all kinds of "school" snacks for the boys. I eat most of what they eat and vice versa. But these cookies, at the time, they were not particularly interested in. Thus I decided they would be the Teacher's snack.

You can find the recipe HERE . After a few changes I love them even more!

***A few things I have changed up. I use molasses instead of honey now, but either will work. Also regular sugar works just as well as raw. Raw is healthier, but if you are out regular is fine.

I also add almonds instead of pecans. Again either will work. Or any other nut for that matter. Or NO nuts! And now, the kicker, I add a cup of chopped Sunsweet prunes.
The prunes make the cookie!

Guess what? The boys LOVE them now. I usually double this recipe because they go so fast.***

With a full schedule for third grade I better get started on school snacks too.
We'll need them as we explore our Solar System.
