Preheat your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
In a large mixing bowl, mash the ripe banana with a fork until smooth. Add the peanut butter, softened unsalted butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar, and mix until creamy and well combined.
Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until fully incorporated.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the rolled oats, all-purpose flour, baking soda, ground cinnamon, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Fold in the raisins until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Using a tablespoon or a small cookie scoop, drop rounded portions 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 slightly golden and the centers appear set.
Remove from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week or freeze for longer storage. Enjoy!
