Mix Ingredients: Add the rolled oats and cocoa powder to the mashed bananas. Stir well to combine. If you like, you can add a splash of vanilla extract or a sprinkle of cinnamon for extra flavor. If the mixture seems a bit dry, you can add a tablespoon of nut butter to enrich the texture and taste.
Shape the Dessert: Using a spoon, scoop the mixture and form small balls or flatten them into cookie shapes on the prepared baking sheet. You can also use a muffin tin to make mini oatmeal cups.
Bake: Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for about 15-20 minutes, or until the edges are slightly crispy and the tops are set.
Cool and Serve: Remove from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. They will firm up as they cool.
Optional Toppings: Once cooled, you can drizzle the desserts with melted dark chocolate or peanut butter for added decadence. Sprinkle some chopped nuts or dried fruit on top for extra texture and flavor.
