Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 300 °F and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

2. In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the spelt flour, oats, coconut sugar, nutmeg, baking soda, baking powder, and salt until evenly combined.

3. In a separate small bowl, combine the mashed banana, maple syrup, egg and yolk, and vanilla until smooth.
