Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 very ripe bananas
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/4 cup melted butter or coconut oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups rolled oats
  • 1/3 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • Pinch of salt

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Mash the ripe bananas in a large bowl until smooth.
  3. Stir in the egg, melted butter or coconut oil, and vanilla extract until well combined.
  4. Add the oats, brown sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt, then fold gently until combined.
  5. Scoop spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet and flatten slightly.
  6. Bake for 12–14 minutes until the edges are lightly golden.
  7. Remove from the oven and allow cookies to cool before serving.

Notes

Use very ripe bananas for best sweetness and texture. Cookies will firm up as they cool.
