How to Make Yummy Banana Oatmeal Flax Cookies

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together 1/2 cup (113g) softened unsalted butter and 1/2 to 1 cup (100-200g) packed light brown sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Mix in 1/4 cup (30g) flax meal.
  4. Beat in 2 large eggs and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  5. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 1/2 cups (180g) all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg, and 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves.
  6. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  7. Stir in 2 ripe mashed bananas (about 1 cup) and 1 cup (85g) rolled oats (old-fashioned, not quick-cooking).
  8. Drop by rounded teaspoonfuls onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving some space between each cookie.
  9. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.
  10. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
