Peanut Butter Banana Oatmeal Cookie
A gooey and delicious peanut butter cookie with sweetness from the banana and a delightful chew from the oatmeal.
Equipment
- 1 electric mixer
- 1 baking sheet
Ingredients
- 2 medium or large ripe bananas, about 1½ cups
- ½ cup peanut butter
- 1 scoop chocolate protein powder, optional
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 2 cups old fashioned oats
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ⅔ cup chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F and lay parchment paper on a cookie sheet.
- Add peeled bananas in your mixing bowl and mash them with the paddle attachment.
- Add in the rest of the ingredients minus the chocolate chips. Mix until smooth and most of the chunks of banana are gone.
- Toss in the chocolate chips and mix until just incorporated.
- Put large spoonfuls of the batter onto the prepared baking sheet. Press them down to form a true cookie shape and not just a cookie dough ball.
- Bake 8-10 minutes or until done. Do not overbake or they will be dry.
Notes
- Use parchment paper on your cookie sheets to keep them from sticking.
- This batter is sticky, so damped your hands to handle.
- The best way to mash bananas is by adding them to your electric mixer with the paddle attachment and letting the mixer do the work.
