Peanut Butter Banana Oatmeal Cookies image

I had peanut butter, I had frozen bananas, I had oatmeal, I had raisins, and I wanted cookies. I just couldn't find the right recipe, so modified what I could find and came up with this one. The resulting cookies are pretty good, but are missing "something". I can't put my finger on it. If it was a savory recipe, I would say it needed more salt. Otherwise, I was pretty happy with them. They make a soft cookie with a good bite.

Time 45m

Yield 36 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 13

3/4 cup creamy peanut butter
3/4 cup white sugar
1/4 cup brown sugar
1 egg
1 cup mashed bananas or 4 medium bananas
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup whole wheat flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
3/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1 3/4 cups oatmeal
1/2 cup chocolate chips or 1/2 cup raisins

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • In a medium bowl, wisk together flours, baking soda, salt, nutmeg, and cinnamon. Stir in oatmeal and set aside.
  • In a large bowl, cream together peanut butter and sugars. Add egg and banana and mix well.
  • Pour dry ingredients into wet ingredients bowl and mix together thoroughly with large spoon. Stir in nuts, chocolate chips, or raisins (I used raisins in my first batch -- didn't have either nuts or chocolate chips).
  • Batter will be fairly wet, so put bowl in fridge for 15 minutes to firm up.
  • Prepare baking sheets with parchment paper. Drop cookie dough by teaspoons onto sheets. Bake for 12-13 minutes. Cool on racks. (Note: return bowl to fridge in between baking.) Makes 36-45 cookies, depending on how big they are.

I'm allergic to peanuts, so I substituted almond butter in this recipe. The cookies turned out great!

I was disappointed with these cookies. They didn't have much flavor and they were too dry.

These cookies are too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my cookies turned out dry and crumbly. I'm going to try them again and see if I can get them right.
