Ingredients
- 1 large Ripe Banana (Mashed, very ripe for sweetness and moisture)
- 0.5 cup Sugar (Feel free to reduce if preferred)
- 0.25 cup Melted Butter (Can swap for vegetable or coconut oil)
- 1 cup All-Purpose Flour (1:1 gluten-free blend can be used)
- 0.25 teaspoon Baking Soda (For gentle lift and texture)
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt (Balances sweetness and enhances flavors)
Instructions
- Step 1: Mash one very ripe banana until it’s completely smooth and lump-free for the best flavor.
- Step 2: Combine the mashed banana with the sugar and melted butter, stirring until the mixture is creamy and well-blended.
- Step 3: Stir in the flour, baking soda, and salt. Mix gently until just combined; a few lumps are perfectly fine.
- Step 4: Drop spoonfuls of dough onto a parchment-lined baking sheet, leaving a little space between each cookie.
- Step 5: Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 8-10 minutes until the edges are lightly golden and the centers look soft.
