Ingredients

  • 12 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened (170 grams)
  • 1 cup brown sugar (200 grams)
  • 1 large egg beaten
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt (optional, you can leave it out if using salted butter)
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon (optional)
  • 1 ½ cup all purpose flour (200 grams)
  • 1 ¾ cup old-fashioned oatmeal
  • 1 cup mashed banana (240 grams)
  • ½ cup chocolate chips (semisweet or milk both work well)
  • ½ cup toasted chopped pecans

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Have ready a couple of baking sheets lined with parchment paper.
  • With an electric mixer, beat the butter and sugar. Mix in egg, then add the vanilla and stir well, scraping bowl often. Add the baking soda, salt and cinnamon and beat until well blended, then add the flour and stir until blended. Add the oatmeal and stir well, then fold in mashed banana, chocolate chips and pecans.
  • Drop by small cookie scoops or tablespoons onto parchment lined baking sheets and bake for 11-13 minutes or until cookies appear set. Let cool on wire rack. For larger cookies, use a medium size cookie scoop and bake the cookies a little longer.
