BANANA RUM COCONUT COOKIES



BANANA RUM COCONUT COOKIES image

Categories     Cookies     Fruit     Dessert     Bake

Yield 20 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 13

2/3 cup packed dark brown sugar
1/2 cup ripe mashed banana (about 1 medium)
1/2 cup reduced-fat mayonnaise
1 teaspoon rum
3/4 cup all-purpose flour (about 3 1/3 ounces)
1 cup quick-cooking oats
1/2 cup flaked sweetened coconut
1/2 cup golden raisins
1/2 cup chopped walnuts
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
Dash of ground ginger

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°. Place first 4 ingredients in a large bowl; beat with a mixer at medium speed until blended. Lightly spoon flour into dry measuring cups; level with a knife. Combine flour and remaining ingredients, stirring with a whisk. Stir flour mixture into banana mixture. Drop dough by 2 tablespoonfuls onto parchment paper-lined baking sheets. Bake at 350° for 19 minutes or until lightly browned. Remove from pan; cool completely on a wire rack.

Tips:

  • Use ripe bananas: The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more flavorful your cookies will be.
  • Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing will make the cookies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Chill the dough before baking: Chilling the dough will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Bake the cookies until they are just set: The cookies should be slightly golden brown around the edges and still soft in the center.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before serving: The cookies will continue to firm up as they cool.

Conclusion:

These coconut banana cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. They are soft, chewy, and full of flavor. Whether you are a fan of coconut or bananas, or both, you are sure to love these cookies. So next time you are looking for a sweet snack, give these coconut banana cookies a try.
