Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 medium ripe bananas
- 113 grams unsalted butter
- 100 grams granulated sugar
- 50 grams light brown sugar
- 1 unit large egg
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 190 grams all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 150 grams chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, mash the ripe bananas until smooth. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, cream the unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and light brown sugar together using an electric mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter-sugar mixture and beat until well combined.
Stir in the mashed bananas and mix until fully incorporated.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing on low speed or stirring gently until just combined. Do not overmix.
Fold in the chocolate chips using a spatula.
Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are just starting to turn golden brown. The centers should still look slightly soft.
Remove the baking sheets from the oven and let the cookies cool on the sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve and enjoy your Chocolate Chip Banana Softies with a glass of milk or hot coffee!
