Ingredients

½ cup walnuts
1 cup all-purpose flour
½ cup whole wheat flour
1 teaspoon kosher salt
½ teaspoon baking soda
¾ cup unsalted butter, room temperature
½ cup packed light brown sugar
½ cup white sugar
1 large egg
1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract
½ cup mashed very ripe banana
1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
8 ounces semisweet chocolate chips

Steps:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
Spread walnuts onto a baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven until walnuts are toasted and fragrant, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove from oven and cool; coarsely chop.
Whisk all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, salt, and baking soda together in a bowl. Beat butter, brown sugar, and white sugar together in a bowl using an electric mixer until pale and fluffy; add egg and vanilla extract. Beat until just combined. Beat banana into creamed butter mixture until just combined.
Stir flour mixture into creamed butter mixture until dough is just combined; fold in oats, chocolate chips, and walnuts. Drop heaping spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing each mound about 1 1/2 inch apart.
Bake on the center rack of the preheated oven for 6 minutes. Rotate pans and bake until edges are browned, 6 to 7 more minutes. Cool cookies on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring to wire racks to cool completely.
