Ingredients
1 ripe banana
½ cup granulated sugar
¼ cup melted butter
1 cup all-purpose flour
¼ teaspoon baking soda
¼ teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a medium bowl, mash the ripe banana until smooth.
- Add the granulated sugar and melted butter to the mashed banana and stir until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the banana mixture, stirring until fully combined.
- Drop spoonfuls of dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden.
- Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
For a more indulgent treat, add chocolate chips, chopped nuts, or cinnamon to the dough.
To make them healthier, use coconut sugar and whole wheat flour.
These cookies are freezer-friendly and will last up to 3 months in a freezer-safe bag.
