Banana bread is not the only dessert you can create with your ripe bananas. Let me introduce you to one of my daughter’s most favourite cookies of all time. It incorporates 3 of her most favourite ingredients: banana, chocolate and oats. They bake up crispy on the outside and soft inside. I love freezing half the cookie dough so when she comes to visit we can enjoy a fresh batch together.
In a large bowl, mix all dry ingredients together and set aside.
Purée bananas in a mini food processor.

Preheat oven 350F. Place 2 tablespoons of dough for each cookie 3 inches apart on lined cookie sheet.
Bake for 15 minutes.
