I had some old bananas and I didn’t quite feel like making banana bread again and so I opted for banana cookies. This is what I found. They turned out pretty good.

Ingredients:
1 1/2 cup flour
1 cup wheat flour
2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. baking soda
1 cup white sugar
2/3 cup butter, softened
2 eggs
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1 cup mashed bananas, ripened
2 cups semisweet chocolate chips

Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease cookie sheets. Sift the flour, baking powder, salt, and baking soda together, and set aside.
  2. Cream the butter with the sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs and vanilla. Mix in the mashed bananas. Add the flour mixture, and stir until just combined. Stir in the chocolate chips. Drop by spoonfuls onto prepared cookie sheets.
  3. Bake in preheated oven for 12 to 15 minutes.Enjoy!
