Banana Coconut Cookies (grain-free, sugar-free, vegan)

These cookies are crisp on the outside and soft on the inside. They are only slightly sweet and higher in protein, making them a nutritious after school snack served along side carrot and celery sticks. You can add mini chocolate chips to some of them if desired though this will add a little bit of cane sugar. You could replace the two tablespoons of maple syrup with more banana if you don't want any sweetener.
