Servings: 20
Ingredients
- 1½ cup all purpose flour
- ½ tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp baking soda
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- ½ tsp salt
- ½ cup softened butter *
- 1 ripe banana *
- ½ cup brown sugar any
- ½ cup granulated white sugar
- 2 eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 3 cup old fashioned oats
- 1 cup chocolate chips *
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350º In a large bowl mix the flour, cinnamon, baking soda, baking powder, salt. Set aside.
- In a stand mixer or with a hand mixer, combine banana, butter, brown and white sugar. Cream together. You may need to scrape the sides of the bowl to be sure it is all mixed equally.
- Add the eggs and vanilla into the sugar mix, mix together. Then slowly add flour mix, oats and chocolate chips last. The mix will be sticky and thick. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper and spoon 1.5 inch balls out onto the parchment. Leave about 1 inch in between the cookies. Feel free to leave them as a ball if you prefer a thicker cookie, or push them down a bit with your fingers.
- Bake on 350º for about 10 - 12 minutes. I prefer the cookies nice and soft, i typically pull them out at 10 minutes and let them cool. Once they cool they will be formed and ready to enjoy.
Notes
*I use plant based butter
*about 1/3 cup of mashed banana
*If you don't have banana you can use 3/4 cup softened butter
*I used peanut butter, chocolate chip blend
