How to Make Double Chocolate Banana Cookies

  1. Puree 3 ripe medium bananas in a blender until completely smooth.
  2. Measure 2 cups of the banana puree and set aside (reserve the rest for a smoothie or another treat!).
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups rolled oats, 1 cup packed light brown sugar, 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, ¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and ½ teaspoon salt.
  4. Add the 2 cups of banana puree, ½ cup (1 stick) unsalted margarine (softened), and 2 large eggs to the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
  5. Stir in 1 ½ cups chocolate chips and ½ cup chopped almonds.
  6. Cover the bowl and refrigerate the batter for at least 1 hour, or until the mixture is slightly firm. This helps prevent the cookies from spreading too much.
  7. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  8. Use a ¼-cup measuring cup to scoop the cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.
  9. Gently flatten each cookie slightly with a spatula.
  10. Bake for 15-17 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers are slightly soft. (Baking time may vary depending on your oven.)
  11. Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
