How to Make Banana Drop Cookies
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 cup granulated sugar, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
- Cut in 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, using a pastry blender or your fingers, until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- In a separate bowl, mash 3 ripe bananas with a fork. Add 2 large eggs and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract; mix well.
- Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Drop rounded tablespoons of cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.
- In a small bowl, combine 1/4 cup granulated sugar and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon.
- Sprinkle the cinnamon sugar mixture evenly over the cookie dough.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
