Preheat the oven at 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
To a large bowl, add the bananas and mashed them with a fork. Add the peanut butter together with the vanilla extract and mix well.
To a blender, add rolled oats. Blend for 8-10 seconds, just until coarsely grounded.
Add the oats over the banana mixture and mix well to combine. Fold in the raisins.
Using a cookie scoop, add a spoonful of mixture into the prepared sheet pan. Flatten them into 1/2-inch disks. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown.

best to use rolled oats instead of quick oats
Peanut butter: better to use all-natural peanut butter. Any other nut butter will work. Another great option is almond butter.
