I know there are whole lotta cookie recipes out there, but trust me when I tell you that these are definitely one of the best ones I have EVER tasted!
The best way to describe them is that they taste a lot like a Reese’s Peanut Butter cup. Yum!
Oatmeal Banana Chocolate Chip Cookies
1/2 cup butter or margarine, softened
3/4 cup brown sugar
1 1/8 cups white sugar
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 banana
1/2 cup peanut butter
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/4 cups rolled oats
1 1/2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
1. Preheat oven to 350.
2. In a large bowl, cream together the butter, brown sugar and white sugar until light and fluffy.
3. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well with each addition
4. Stir in the vanilla, bananas and peanut butter until combined well
5. Combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt; gradually stir into the creamed mixture.
6. Finally, stir in the rolled oats and chocolate chips.
7. Drop by rounded spoonfuls onto an unprepared cookie sheet.
8. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes.
Allow cookies to cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy!!

I did change the recipe around a bit using sucanant for brown sugar, sucanant with honey for white sugar & whole wheat flower for all-purpose. And I used mini choc chips. Absolutely delicious!!! Thanks for the recipe…it’s a keeper at our house.
