Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 large ripe bananas
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 0.5 cup granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup brown sugar, packed
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1.75 cups all-purpose flour
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)
- 1.25 cups chocolate chips or chunks
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
In a large mixing bowl, mash the bananas until smooth using a fork or potato masher.
Add melted butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and vanilla extract to the mashed bananas. Mix until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon (if using).
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring just until combined. Avoid overmixing.
Fold in the chocolate chips or chunks using a spatula, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 10–12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and the centers are set.
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm or store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. Enjoy your banana chocolate chip cookies!
