Ingredients
- 2 medium ripe bananas
- 1.5 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
- 0.25 cups natural peanut butter
- 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.25 cups mini chocolate chips
- 0.25 cups chopped walnuts
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas with a fork until smooth and creamy.
Step 3
Add the natural peanut butter and vanilla extract to the mashed bananas and mix well to combine.
Step 4
In a separate bowl, mix the rolled oats, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt together.
Step 5
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until fully combined.
Step 6
Fold in the mini chocolate chips and chopped walnuts, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Step 7
Scoop heaping tablespoons of the dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 1 inch apart. Flatten the cookies slightly with the back of a spoon as they won’t spread much during baking.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are set and the cookies feel slightly firm to the touch.
Step 9
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 10
Enjoy the cookies immediately or store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
