Description
These soft, banana-packed cookies are just as cozy and delicious as banana bread. With just six simple ingredients, they come together quickly and are the perfect sweet treat for banana lovers. My husband couldn’t get enough of them!
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 ripe banana, mashed
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/4 cup melted butter
- 1 cup flour
- 1/4 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp salt
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
- In a medium-sized bowl, mash the ripe banana until smooth.
- Add sugar and melted butter to the bowl with the mashed banana and mix until smooth and well combined.
- Stir in the flour, baking soda, and salt until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Drop spoonfuls of the cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.
- Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- Ensure your banana is ripe for the best flavor. A banana with brown spots is ideal.
- For extra flavor, feel free to add a pinch of cinnamon or vanilla extract.
