Ingredients
Scale
- 1 ripe banana, mashed
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/4 cup melted butter
- 1 cup flour
- 1/4 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp salt
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a bowl, mix the mashed banana, sugar, and melted butter until smooth and well combined.
- Add the flour, baking soda, and salt to the mixture and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Drop spoonfuls of dough onto an ungreased baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges of the cookies turn golden.
- Remove from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- These cookies are soft and slightly chewy with a light banana flavor. The sweetness of the ripe banana pairs perfectly with the slight crunch on the edges from the baking process.
- For an extra twist, you can add a handful of chocolate chips or chopped nuts into the dough for added texture and flavor.
- If you prefer a less sweet cookie, you can reduce the sugar to 1/4 cup.
