- 1 large mashed banana or 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce

Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 325ºF (163ºC). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

- Stir in the mashed banana (or applesauce), melted coconut oil (or butter), liquid sweetener, and almond milk until fully combined.
- Let the mixture rest for 4–5 minutes to allow the flaxseed and chia seeds to bind.
