Tasty Tuesday: Peanut Butter Mocha "Crownies"

So, I'm beginning to do A LOT of experimenting in the kitchen with the goal of finding the best taste for the lowest amount of calories and as "clean" as possible.

I had a little fun and made a video as I tried out an idea I came up with for the first time.

I intended to have "balls," but they ended up being flat like cookies with a texture similar to brownies, so that's why I'm calling them "crownies."

RECIPE

Ingredients:
1 mashed banana
1/2 cup of oats, 1/4 blended into a fine powder
1 tablespoon cocoa powder
1/4 cup peanut butter
2 1/2 tablespoons cool coffee
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
Dash of salt

Process:
Mash the banana in a bowl. Put half the oats in a blender to make a fine powder. Add to bowl with remaining oats. Add all other ingredients. Mix well. Drop spoonfuls onto coconut oil-greased baking sheet. Bake for 12 minutes at 350 degrees.

Entire batch: 650 calories
Makes 10-12

Let me know what you think!
