Agave tropical cut-out cookies!

Hey!
For any of those with little sibs, or who just have a sweet tooth for chewie banana flavored cookies, this is the right recipe for you!! It's easy, it's delicious, it has no refined sugar, and its a great chance to use all your favorite cookie cutters!
Ingredients
2c all purpose flour
1/4t salt
1/4t baking powder
1/4c virgin coconut oil
¾ cup agave syrup
1 banana
1t vanilla
Instructions
whisk together the flour, salt and baking powder and set aside. In a seperate bowl,cream together the agave and coconut oil, add the banana, and vanilla and mix well. Should look pretty smooth so make sure the banana is blended in well. Slowly add the flour mixture and mix until it is well blended.Wrap and chill at approx. 2 hours before baking.Dough should be pretty stiff.
Preheat oven to 375(f). Roll out on a floured board and cut out shapes. Place shapes on parchment lined (or lightly oiled) cookie sheet and bake for 8 minutes. Don't let the cookies brown.Cool on racks.
Don't be afraid to use some of your favorite vegan frosting and some sprinkles, but trust me, plain is great! I used really small cookie cutters and this recipe made close to 40 cookies. These are best the first day...so invite all your friends to enjoy!
