- 30 gr ground flaxseed (approx. ¼ cup)
- 1 tbsp chia seed
- ¾ tsp ground cinnamon

- Combine all dry ingredients in a large mixing bowl; the oats, oat flour, flaxseed, cinnamon and salt.
- Add the mashed bananas, almond butter, maple syrup and vanilla. Stir with a wooden spatula to combine. If the dough is too dry, add 1-2 tbsp of milk to get it smoother. It has to hold its shape though when scooped.
- Now fold in the walnuts and chocolate chips.
