If you choose gluten-free oat and oat flour, these cookies will be gluten-free. For more of a banana bread-like taste, add the spices from your favorite banana bread recipe and omit the chocolate. To make vegan, use dairy-free chocolate chips.
Tip: Instead of buying oat flour, you can pulse rolled oats in a food processor until finely ground.
