Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
In a large bowl, mash the ripe bananas thoroughly using a fork or potato masher until smooth and creamy.
Add the peanut butter to the mashed banana and mix well until fully combined and smooth.
Stir in the vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and salt.
Slowly fold in the rolled oats, mixing until the oats are evenly distributed and the dough holds together. If using, stir in the sugar-free dark chocolate chips at this stage.
Using a spoon or cookie scoop, drop dough balls (about 1.5 tablespoons each) onto the prepared baking sheet. Flatten the cookies slightly with the back of a fork or spoon, as they won't spread much while baking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and the cookies feel set.
Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or refrigerate for up to a week. Enjoy!
