Heavenly Recipe: 2 Ingredient Banana Bread Bites

Banana Bread Bites

Being on the road makes it difficult to travel with all the ingredients needed to bake with, but we still like to eat as healthy as we can. These cookies taste just like banana bread and I saw a version of this originally on Pinterest, but have had to adapt it to life on deputation. So, these banana bread cookies happen to be vegan and gluten free all while costing very little to make! Here is what I used to make these delicious little bites:

-2 ripe organic bananas

-2 packages of any flavor organic instant oatmeal


Mash bananas and then mix in the oatmeal packets til mixed well. Then place by small spoon fulls on a cookie sheet and bake at 350 for around 15 minutes. Makes 1 dozen

Optional: You can also add in a splash of pure vanilla or almond extract, 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips, or nuts, dried fruit or even a tablespoon of flax seeds. If the oatmeal doesn't already have cinnamon, you can add in 1/2 teaspoon of it...basically, put in anything you like in your banana bread!
My kids devour these and I'm so glad to be able to make a healthy treat for them in almost any prophet's chamber!
Give them a try and let me know what ya think! This recipe has been a blessing to my family, and I hope it is to yours as well! 


Enjoy! :)

Haynes Family Prayer Letter - October 2018

October 2018 Dear Supporting Churches and Friends, Got some good news to report in from this past month.  First, I will tell you about a great project which Justine is doing  for two orphanages in Rome. A while back, somebody gifted Justine about 100 skeins of yarn (that’s one of those yarn thingies for all you guys out there).  Justine was praying about using the yarn to make something on a large scale for a group of people, but also using it to get the Gospel of our Lord Jesus to that specific group .  One of Justine’s heroes is Dorcas because she made garments for the poor as her ministry, which ultimately brought Glory to God when Peter raised her from the dead in Acts 9.  Justine got in touch with an orphanage in Rome which currently has 80 kids living there. Justine explained everything to the director and they were THRILLED about handmade scarves and gave us the “green light” to send everything.  The director even told us to m

Senses Secured

RISE AND SHINE FOR JESUS! By Pam Iannello (my late mother) "Senses Secured" Proverbs 7:1-5 (KJV) My son, keep my words , and lay up my commandments with thee. [2] Keep my commandments, and live; and my law as the apple of thine eye . [3] Bind them upon thy fingers , write them upon the table of thine heart . [4] Say unto wisdom, Thou art my sister; and call understanding thy kinswoman : [5] That they may keep thee from the strange woman, from the stranger which flattereth with her words . As I studied this portion of scripture I was heavily struck with the importance of having our senses saturated with the Word of God. You see, sexual sin often begins with unguarded eyes, hands, and hearts… And knowing that the rest of this chapter vividly deals with the unhealthy situation that occurred between a simple young man and a strange woman, it is no wonder that the Lord opens the story with strong scriptural advice! Truly, it is a perfect text to teach young

One Day At A Time

I wanted to send you this poem today, and I remember it sitting on my mother's desk for many years before she died. She was always encouraged by this poem and I hope you will be encouraged with its truths along with me... "One Day at a Time" One day at a time, with its failures and fears, With its hurts and mistakes, with its weakness and tears, With its portion of pain and its burden of care; One day at a time we must meet and must bear. One day at a time to be patient and strong, To be calm under trial and sweet under wrong; Then its toiling shall pass and its sorrow shall cease; It shall darken and die, and the night shall bring peace. One day at a time - but the day is so long, And the heart is not brave, and soul is not strong, O Thou pitiful Christ, be Thou near all the way; Give courage and patience and strength  for the day. Swift cometh His answer, so clear and so sweet; "Yea, I will be with thee, thy troubles to m
