These banana cookies are free of sugar and so healthy that you can even enjoy them with a glass of milk as the breakfast. Feel free to replace rolled spelt flakes with old fashioned oats and fresh stevia leaves with other sugar substitutes or honey.

Splendid.I loved the entire idea of converting it to a cookie..Must try !
Oh my goodness! You are so talented. Love your blog and posts like this!
I'm not sure if I can eat just a few of these cookies. Look delicious, Angie. :)

These look so yummy. Perfect with a glass of milk
So stevia leaves are sweet? I've only seen the powdered stevia, so this is a very interesting recipe. And delicious, of course!
Oh these look wonderful. I want to get some seeds and plant stevia. I will have your recipe in mind for the future.
Mmmhhh, delicious! I bet they are quite addictive. I've never used fresh stevia leaves...
Cheers,

Oh, you've got stevia plant! I'm using stevia sweetener where-ever I can ...
great taste no extra calories ;-)
I am so excited. I bought some spelt! This is the first recipe I've seen that uses stevia leaves. I love it.
These look deliciously good ! I've seen stevia leaves/ plants while watching this travel segment were they featured Japan :D
What an unusual cookie, bug one that not only looks amazing but one you don't have to feel much guilt eating!
I have never heard of stevia leaves before but I am loving this recipe.

That's a very good recipe for over-ripe bananas. And I can see these being fabulous for school lunch boxes xx
These look amazing. And great use for overripe bananas!
Gorgeous! I love it when you make healthy food look like naughty, yummy, full fatty food :)
These cookies are real healthy! I bet they taste real good too. Thanks for always coming with all these great healthy treats. :))
I love stevia, but I've never actually used the leaves! These cookies look great.
I love your recipes Angie! They always look so good, and I love how healthy they are. I really want one of these right now!
Looks DElish and creative combo for healthy plate....

Yum! Yum! Yum!
What a combination!! I'm always looking for healthy cookies, so that I won't feel THAT bad about eating cookies almost everyday. These look SO good!
ANgie amazing like always you make, I know I told you before LOL but is true ! I love the pictures:))
wow cool natural way to sweeten and they look cute
This is the first time I have ever seen fresh Stevia leaves.
it´s a very good combination!

What delicious looking breakfast bites! I would totally enjoy a couple of these with milk in the morning. I've heard of recipes that use stevia in the granulated or extract form but I never thought of using the leaf itself!
What a genius idea to add Stevia leaves to the already healthy, crunchy, and yummy cookies. Stevia leaves are naturally sweet in their own right, except there is 'no' way that we can find these exotic, and amazing leaves...even in our organic supermarkets!
Thanks for sharing the lovely recipe:D
Siempre me sorprendes Sngie exquisita combinación,me encanta abrazos y abrazos.
You are always so creative with your recipes. These look fantastic.
What an interesting recipe! I'd never thought of using bananas like this!
wow your bakes are getting more and more healthy but yet still as delicious looking! i can't get stevia leaves fresh here, but I'm thinking I'll just put some dried ones to try :D
These look amazing Angie :) When you commented on my competition, I was thinking, why isn't Angie's blog in my blogs I love roll?! You are there now! Haha. Hope you have a great day :)
These cookies sound healthy enough, no sugar, but don't have any idea what are stevia leaves! Admiring your clicks!
What a delicious and healthy snack, you make them look so wonderful!
Cookies for breakfast sounds good to me!
Another healthy bites from you !
Simply gorgeous!
Healthy cookies for breakfast, great idea.
These are such a great nd creative combination of flavors. Inspired!
I tried growing Stevia from seeds but they never came up. Gardener error I am sure! These look wonderful and would make a great breakfast. Feel free to bring them with you and come for a visit! I'll make the coffee :)
These are fab, I love banana & oats and all things like this! Beautiful pictures too
Healthy biscuits???This is my type of recipe. I love biscuits, in Italy we eat biscuits for breakfast...uhm.. no very healthy, but now these great healthy biscuits! Perfect
I had no idea stevia was a plant, it's very cool that you used it as the sweetener in this recipe. I think I would like this cookie as I am not much into sweets.
Wow, I'll have to find out if I can grow a stevia plant in my garden! Great looking cookies...I love the option of making them with oats :)
I love treats that are healthy without tasting healthy! These look absolutely satisfying for any sweet-tooth!
Cookies for breakfast? Cookies for breakfast! I love it...
Anything with ripe bananas I love but I have never seen stevia leaves or seen them in a recipe. Where does one get that? Very col cookies.
These look fabulous. Especially since I have a few over-ripe bananas sitting in my fruit bowl. Thank for sharing with me!
I have never used spelt, but the oatmeal version sounds good.
Looks very healthy and delicious. Love it. I have not seen spelt flakes here. Maybe I have not looked hard enough. This would be lovely for afternoon tea with friends. Thanks very much for sharing.
I love the look of homestyle country cookies like these - hardy, whole grain, goodness!
these are gorgeous cookies! i've never tried stevia before...wonder if i can track some down
Yum! Look like my kind of breakfast :) And beautifully photographed as usual.
These look awesome! And I read the ingredients, so wholesome!
I am always in awe over your use of ingredients. Note to self to look for stevia leaves when shopping somewhere more cosmopolitan than my local grocery.
How creative! I love that you used fresh stevia leaves! Cool!
Love that you came up with a healthy cookie that still tastes great! Those are hard to come by! Buzzed ya! ;-)
I have never seen or heard of stevia leaves, thanks for sharing! Love getting to know new ingredient to bake with.
Now I have to go look up stevia! Thanks for the different ingredient, at least for me.
And I love the quotes at the end of your posts:)
I love these cookies! Bananas and peanut butter go great together. A great way to use overripe banas - I will be making these delicious and heathy cookies soon;)
Just learned something new - stevia leaves. Have never heard of them and certainly have never used them. Interesting. I read that they have a licorice aftertaste? I could like that especially with banana. These cookies look quite addicting!
Angie, these cookies look awesome and I sure would love to have them for breakfast...yum!
Thanks for the recipe and hope you have a nice week ahead :)
Oh what a fabulous combination, Angie! PB and stevia leaves are both excellent combinations. :)
that looks delicious rolled spelt and banana are bet to combine!
I thought my oat cookies are healthy but yours are even better without sugar! and with bananas too! Looks delicious, but where to get stavia leaves? hmmm...
Mmmm, looks delicious! :)
Looking delicious. I must make it this weekend. Thanks for the recipes..:)
Peanut butter and bananas? Elvis returns! Couldn't be a tastier combo, Angie. Love that you've dipped them in spelt...
With all the healthfulness in these, sounds like they'd be great for breakfast!
I wish I could get as creative as you do in the kitchen! This is a great recipe that I never would have even dreamed of! Thanks so much for sharing.
Oh my, these look amazing. I am totally in the mood for bananas too. So glad I found another banana recipe to try!
What a great, healthy cookie! I've never worked with fresh stevia, only the liquid extract.
how cool! i love how you used fresh stevia leaves!
These look so good! I LOVE how you used fresh stevia leaves -- I would love to find them!
Mmm... what a great recipe! I have been wanting a stevia plant. Now I really need to get myself one!

Very innovative idea using stevia leaves Angie! Beautiful cookies!
So yum and delectable looking cooking...they have everything I carve for....
Wow, I had no idea you could bake with stevia leaves! That is so cool! The cookies look so moist & delicious too.
I love your healthy initiative, Angie! These would make a healthy and delicious breakfast or afternoon snack.
Hi Angie, yummy healthy cookies, perfect for snack or anytime of the day.
Beautiful presentation.
Have a nice day.
Looks & sounds yummy! Bookmarking this recipe! :)
I would love to have these for breakfast everyday. Your recipes are always so creative!
I still have a small stash of rolled spelt that I need to use up and I have a stevia plant growing in my garden(just planted it for fun and have never used it!) -this is a cookie recipe that I need to try;-)
These cookies look healthy and delicious! I do use stevia. Are the leaves slightly sweet?
Now I'm curious to find stevia leaves so I can try these flavorful cookies. I may substitute with oatmeal and have them for breakfast...love the idea:)
You seem to have some of the most innovative recipes! These look so awesome; I want one right now!
I've never tried fresh stevia leaves before..very interesting, thanks for sharing!! =D
These cookies sound like a tasty way to use up overripe bananas. I have never cooked with spelt or stevia before, so I found this an interesting recipe.
This is the first time I've ever seen a recipe using fresh stevia leaves! I would love them for breakfast!
Oh my, did you plant your own stevia as well? I enjoy having dried stevia tea. Very delightful but have never thought of using them in baking. Maybe I have only limited leaves. haha.... My relative bought it from North Thailand months ago.
