Ingredients

  • 2 very ripe bananas, mashed
  • 1 cup quick cook or old fashioned rolled oats
  • 1/2 cup semi sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 tsp vanilla, 1/2 tsp cinnamon, optional

Instructions

  • Prehet oven to 350. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a medium bowl, add mashed banana, oats, and chocolate chips. Add optional cinnamon and vanilla if desired. Mix well.
  • Using a 1" cookie scoop or tablespoon, scoop mixture into balls and place on baking sheet. These cookies will bake in the shape they are made, meaning no spreading. I like to flatten them just a bit.
  • Bake for 15-20 minutes. Cool on sheet for 2 minutes then move to wire rack. Yields about 12-15 cookies.

Notes

Some other possible add in's to these cookies are shredded coconut, butterscotch chips, peanut butter chips, dried fruit, and chopped pecans or walnuts.
