Soft and Chewy Banana Bread Cookies with a Hint of Cinnamon

These Banana Bread Cookies combine the best of both worlds: the comforting flavor of banana bread with the irresistible texture of a cookie. Soft, chewy, and slightly crisp around the edges, these cookies are packed with banana goodness and just the right amount of sweetness. Whether you’re enjoying them as a snack or dessert, they’ll quickly become a favorite.

Ingredients:

  • 2 ripe bananas, mashed
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips (optional)
  • 1/4 cup chopped walnuts (optional)

Directions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Set aside.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
  4. Add the mashed bananas, egg, and vanilla extract to the butter mixture and beat until combined.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  6. Fold in the chocolate chips and walnuts, if using.
  7. Using a spoon or cookie scoop, drop tablespoon-sized portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  8. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the cookies are golden around the edges and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  9. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
