Method
 

Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and place an oven rack in the center position.
  2. In a large bowl, combine 2 cups flour, 1 cup oats, 1/2 teaspoon baking powder, 1/4 teaspoon baking soda, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon; stir until evenly mixed.
  3. In a separate medium bowl, lightly beat 1 large egg. Add 1/3 cup melted coconut oil, 1/4 cup honey, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract; mix until combined.
  4. Pour the wet mixture into the large bowl with the dry ingredients and stir until just combined.
  5. Fold in 1 cup grated carrots, 1 cup grated apple, 1 medium mashed banana, and 1/3 cup mini chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
  6. Roll the dough into 1-inch balls (about 20). Place them on the prepared baking sheet about 2 inches apart. Lightly press each ball with a fork to flatten slightly.
  7. Bake for 13–15 minutes, until edges are set and tops are lightly golden.
  8. Remove the baking sheet from the oven and transfer the cookies to a wire rack to cool completely.
  9. Store cooled cookies in an airtight container for up to 3 days, or freeze for up to 3 months.
