Breakfast Cookies

My mother in law gave me this recipe and it was a lot of fun to make. For a big breakfast cookie this is great! Thanks Carrie!!!
5 pts per cookie. Makes 12 Cookies

1 large banana, mashed about 1/2 cup
1/2 C chunky peanut butter (I used reduced fat creamy)
1/2 C Honey
1 tsp vanilla
1 C rolled oats
1/2 C whole wheat flour
1/4 C dry milk
2 tsp ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp baking soda
1 C dried cranberries or raisins

Spray two cookie sheets with cooking spray.
In large bowl mix together banana, peanut butter, honey and vanilla. In a small bow mix dry ingredients together. Pour into large bowl and mix well. Add dried cranberries or raisins and mix well. Using a 1/4 cup measure, drop mounds of dough onto cookie sheet. If you want perfect cookies flatten with a spoon into 3 1/2 to 4 inch rounds. Bake one sheet at a time at 350 for 14-16 min or until browned. Cookies will stay good on the counter for up to three days or in the freezer for 2 months.
