Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.

In a large mixing bowl, mash the bananas until smooth using a fork or potato masher.

Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 10–12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and the centers are set.
