Chef's Notes

Baking Sheet: I recommend this specific baking sheet. Line your pans with silicone baking mats (or parchment paper) and only place 8 cookie dough balls on each pan.

Banana: You only need one medium-sized overripe banana for this recipe. The more ripe (think brown and wrinkly) the better!

Measuring Flour: To help ensure you don’t add extra flour, follow these three simple steps: 1) Fluff up the flour using a fork. 2) Spoon the flour into your measuring cup. 3) Scrape a knife across the top of the measuring cup to level out the flour.

Cookie Scoop: I used a medium cookie scoop, specifically the #24 scoop.

Perfectly Shaped Cookies: The trick to getting more circular cookies is to use a round cookie cutter to essentially “rotate or spin” around each cookie immediately when they come out of the oven. Since they’re really hot, the cookies will easily mold to that circular shape as you move around them.

I'm always looking for recipes where I can use my overripe bananas. These cookies are soft, chewy, and have a strong banana flavor. So good!
