- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, mash the bananas until completely smooth.
- Add the oatmeal, chocolate chips, and vanilla extract to the mashed bananas. Mix thoroughly until well combined.
- Roll the dough into 1-inch balls and place them onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each cookie.
- Slightly flatten each cookie ball with a fork.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
