Yield 18

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup butter
1 cup white sugar
1 cup packed brown sugar
2 eggs
1 teaspoon banana extract
1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
3 cups rolled oats
2 cups chopped pecans

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • Cream butter or margarine with mixer. Blend in whole eggs, sugar, and extract. Add flour, baking soda, and salt. When the ingredients are thoroughly mixed, add oats and pecans. Mix on lower speed until consistent.
  • Drop pieces of the dough using an ice cream scoop onto an ungreased cookie tray roughly 3 to 4 inches apart.
  • Bake 8 to 10 minutes. Eight minutes would yield crispy cookies with a chewy, slightly doughy center. For harder, crispier cookies, bake longer. Cool on wire rack.

BANANA NUT OATMEAL COOKIES

Yield 30 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 cup all purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 stick unsalted butter, room temperature
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup (packed) light brown sugar
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/2 cup old-fashioned oats
1 well ripened banana (cut into 1" or so chunks)
1/2 Cup chopped Walnuts
~2 ounces of either dark chocolate, white chocolate, or caramels, chopped (for drizzling, optional but highly recomended)

Steps:

  • Line 2 large cookie sheets with parchment paper and preheat oven to 350 degrees. Whisk together flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt in a medium bowl. In a separate large bowl, beat both sugars, butter, and shortening together until smooth(I use a stand mixer) Add Vanilla, egg, and banana, beat until well mixed. Stir in Flour mixture, oats, and walnuts until blended. Drop batter by rounded tablespoonfuls onto prepared sheets, 2 inches apart. You will have to make several batches, but only bake 1 pan at a time. Bake cookies until edges are light brown, about 15 minutes. Cool on sheets 5 minutes. Transfer to rack; cool completely. While one sheet is cooling, start baking the next sheet. For Drizzling : Stir chopped chocolate or caramels (if using caramels add about a tablespoon of water) in top of double boiler until melted and smooth. (you can also melt chocolate in the microwave in 10 second burst stirring well between burst until smooth and liquid if you prefer. Using a small spoon, drizzle topping over cookies in zigzag pattern. Let stand until topping sets, about 1 hour, or refrigerate cookies for about 10-15 minutes to set topping faster. I usually use a combination of 2 toppings, drizzled in opposite directions for aesthetic appeal.

Categories     Drop Cookies

Time 1h

Yield 48 cookies, 48 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 cups old fashioned oats
1 cup skim milk
1 cup chopped pecans (you can also use walnuts if preferred)
2 cups mashed bananas (about 4 medium bananas)
4 egg whites
1 cup dark brown sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla
3 cups whole wheat flour
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon nutmeg
2 teaspoons cinnamon

Steps:

  • Mix together oats, milk, and pecans in a bowl and set aside.
  • Mix together brown sugar, egg whites, mashed banana, and vanilla in a large mixing bowl.
  • Add flour, baking soda, salt, nutmeg, and cinnamon, and stir well to combine.
  • Add oat mixture and stir well (the cookie dough will look like lumpy oatmeal).
  • Drop batter by tablespoonfuls onto cookie sheets sprayed with non-stick spray or lined with parchment paper. Flatten each cookie slightly with a fork or spatula.
  • Bake at 350 degrees for 12 minutes.

Tips:

  • Use ripe bananas: The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more flavorful your cookies will be.
  • Mash the bananas well: This will help ensure that the cookies have a smooth texture.
  • Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing will make the cookies tough.
  • Chill the dough before baking: This will help the cookies hold their shape better.
  • Bake the cookies until they are just golden brown: Overbaking will make the cookies dry and crumbly.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before eating: This will allow the flavors to meld together and the cookies to firm up.

Conclusion:

These banana nut oatmeal cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. They are soft and chewy with a sweet banana flavor and a crunchy oat topping. Whether you are looking for a quick snack or a dessert to impress your friends, these cookies are sure to be a hit.
