Banana Bread Cookies
INGREDIENTS
- 1 1/2 cups almond flour
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/8 teaspoon sea salt
- 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon pure maple syrup
- 1 1/4 cup overly ripe mashed bananas (about 4 medium bananas)
Optional Add-ins
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- extra 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
- pinch ground cloves
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips
INSTRUCTIONS
- Preheat the oven to 350℉ and line a baking sheet with parchment paper
- Add the almond flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon to a bowl and mix well
- Mash the bananas with a fork and add them to the dry ingredients (I mash, then measure)
- Add the maple syrup
- Mix until all the ingredients are evenly incorporated
- Use a 1.5 tablespoon cookie scoop to scoop the dough onto the baking sheet
- Gently flatten the cookies with a fork or back of a spoon.
- Bake for 26-30 minutes until the middles have set and aren't wet (mine were perfect at 28 minutes)
- After the cookies come out of the oven, place them on a wire rack to cool
- Let the cookies come to room temperature before eating
- Store in an air tight container in the fridge for up to 5 days
NOTES
- These cookies won't spread too much so I put all 15 cookies on one baking sheet, so I won't have to bake 2 batches.
- For this recipe I used a 1.5 tablespoon cookie scoop.
- **These cookies are almost entirely sweetened by bananas, so make sure your bananas are overripe!**
