Banana Cookies Recipe

If you love banana bread, you will absolutely love these soft Banana Cookies. They are full of banana flavor and warm cinnamon, filled with chocolate chips and crunchy walnuts for an amazing textural contrast. These cookies remind me of a muffin top, they are dense but super soft just like a banana muffin without the bottom half. These cookies can be made smaller but I prefer the oversized version because they are perfect for a small breakfast with my morning coffee.

How to make Banana Cookies:

For the banana cookie batter, I mixed all the ingredients by hand with a whisk and a spatula, no fancy mixer is needed. I also used the potato masher to mash the banana, but you can use a spoon, or a fork. The riper the banana, the easier it is to mash.

How many bananas do I need to use for this recipe?

The recipe calls for 1 cup of banana. This is equivalent to about 2 medium bananas. If your bananas are on the smaller side, it may take 2 ½ bananas. And if they are on the larger side, it may be less than 2 bananas. To be exact, you can mash the banana in a separate bowl and measure exactly 1 cup of mashed banana for the recipe. Make sure to use ripe bananas for the best flavor. If you end up with leftover banana, toss it in a smoothie.

What other fillings can I use for banana cookies?

I used semisweet chocolate chips and walnuts in this recipe. You can use all chocolate chips or all walnuts. Just make sure to keep the total filling to 2 cups. You can replace the walnuts with pecans, or replace the combinations with white chocolate chips and macadamia nuts for a banana version of these white chocolate macadamia nut cookies.

Storing leftover Banana Cookies:

These cookies can be stored at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the refrigerator for up to a week. These cookies are softer when you store them. It is best to wrap them individually and store in a container for softer cookies.
