How to Make Banana Chocolate Chip Cookies

It only takes 3 simple steps to make these delicious banana oatmeal cookies with chocolate chips! This recipe is just as easy as making cookies from a boxed mix or refrigerated dough. The only difference is they taste a thousand times better. You can’t beat cookies made from scratch! Especially when they have the flavors of banana bread and buttery oats!

Don’t Overmix: You want your banana oatmeal cookies to be nice and soft, so only mix your cookie dough until the ingredients are combined. If you overmix, this can cause gluten to develop in the flour, leaving you with hard, rubbery cookies.Avoid Overcooking: I always like to pull my cookies out of the oven when the centers are still fairly soft. They’ll continue to cook for a couple minutes on the cooling rack.Swap Chocolate Chips: You can switch out your regular chocolate chips for white, butterscotch, or peanut butter chips for a tasty flavor variation! For a turtle version of these cookies, you can drizzle a little salted caramel sauce on top as well.
