Let's Bake Banana Oatmeal Cookies
I love to bake, and I had some bananas that were turning brown and spotty. I did a quick search online and came across this recipe for oatmeal banana cookies.
This is a really simple recipe, and it was really yummy, too. I did some modifications to this recipe, as always. I used 2 bananas in this recipe - one the recipe called for, and the other as the egg replacer. One half of a banana is equal to one egg. These cookies did not have a very banana flavor, as the cinnamon and oatmeal took over, and the bananas make these cookies very soft.
These cookies mix up really fast, too, and I used an ice cream scoop to shape the cookies. I wanted them to be a little larger than normal, so I would not have to be in the kitchen all evening. The ice cream scoop did the trick, and this batch made exactly eleven cookies!
The oatmeal banana cookies were a hit at our house and did not last very long at all! I really liked this cookie with a nice cup of tea in the morning, too - what a great brekkie!
