Ingredients
Scale
- 3 ripe bananas, mashed
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 3/4 cup brown sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter and brown sugar until creamy.
- Add the mashed bananas, egg, and vanilla extract; mix until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring gently.
- Fold in the chocolate chips.
- Drop spoonfuls of dough onto a parchment-lined baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Flatten each cookie slightly with the back of a spoon.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown around the edges.
- Allow the cookies to cool on a wire rack before serving.
Notes
- Use overly ripe bananas for maximum flavor and moistness.
- Chill the dough for 30 minutes to prevent spreading during baking.
- Mix the chocolate chips gently to evenly distribute throughout the dough.
- Adjust baking time for softer or crunchier cookies based on preference.
