Ingredients

  • 2 large ripe bananas, mashed
  • 1/2 cup creamy natural peanut butter
  • 1 1/2 cups old -fashioned rolled oats
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 cup semi -sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
  • In a large mixing bowl, mash the bananas with a fork until a smooth, liquid consistency is achieved.
  • Add the creamy peanut butter to the mashed bananas and whisk until the mixture is fully emulsified.
  • Incorporate the rolled oats, ground cinnamon, and salt into the wet mixture, stirring until a thick, uniform dough forms.
  • Fold the chocolate chips into the dough using a spatula.
  • Portion the dough into 12 equal balls (approximately 2 tablespoons each) and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
  • Flatten each dough ball slightly with the back of a spoon, as these cookies do not spread significantly during baking.
  • Bake for 12 to 15 minutes or until the edges are firm and the bottoms are lightly browned.
  • Cool the cookies on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
