How to Make Chewy Banana Oatmeal Cookies
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Mash the ripe bananas in a large bowl until smooth.
  3. Cream together the softened butter and brown sugar in another bowl until light and fluffy.
  4. Beat in the egg, vanilla extract, and mashed bananas until fully combined.
  5. Whisk together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt in a separate bowl.
  6. Combine the dry ingredients with the wet mixture gradually, stirring until just combined.
  7. Fold in the oats and chocolate chips if you’re opting for a sweet twist.
  8. Scoop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the baking sheet, spacing them 2 inches apart.
  9. Bake for 10–12 minutes, monitoring until the edges are golden and the centers are set.
  10. Cool the cookies on the sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
