One Tasty Sunday: Healthy PB and Banana Oatmeal Cookies

We have a playdate with a few of Little Man's friends tomorrow and thought these cookies would be the perfect snack to share!  I have used many cookie recipes in the past, but haven't managed to find one I like that has no added sugar or oil.  That means I need to create my own right?!?  Of course! 

So, these are my version of a healthy cookie.  No added sugar, oil, or eggs.  And Little Man LOVES them.  Actually, LM's Daddy does too, when they're drizzled with just a bit of honey.  YUM!!!  =)
