Ingredients
  

Wet Ingredients
  • 1 small banana overripe, mashed
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil or melted butter
  • 1 cup light brown sugar packed
  • 1 egg yolk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Dry Ingredients
  • 1 1/3 cups all purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2/3 cup chocolate chips

Equipment

  • Mixing Bowl
  • Cookie Sheet
  • Parchment Paper
  • Oven

Method
 

  1. In a large bowl, combine the melted butter, brown sugar, and mashed banana. Mix to combine.
  2. Add the egg yolk and vanilla extract. Mix well.
  3. Add the flour, salt, baking soda, and cinnamon. Stir until combined and no streaks of flour remain.
  4. Last, fold in the chocolate chips. Cover and set aside to let the flour hydrate in the dough while the oven preheats, about 15 minutes.
  5. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper and preheat the oven to 350°F.
  6. Once the oven is preheated, use a 1 ounce cookie scoop or a spoon to scoop out dough balls, placing them about 2 inches apart on the prepared cookie sheet.
  7. Bake for 10 to 11 minutes or until the edges are set and the cookies have puffed up, but the middles are still underbaked.
  8. Allow to cool before eating!

Notes

These cookies are a perfect blend of banana bread and classic chocolate chip cookies. They're soft, slightly chewy, and have a wonderful banana flavor. Feel free to experiment with adding nuts or different types of chocolate chips to suit your taste.
