preview

×Skip To RecipeThese buttery soft Banana Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies are super soft and chewy with a strong banana-chocolate flavor throughout. The mashed banana provides a thickness to the cookies while the oats add a chewy texture with pockets of melted chocolate chips with every bite!These cookies do last long and are great for a healthy snack.Just like these Sugar Free Oatmeal Cookies and our Chocolate Chip Banana Bread - we love the banana and chocolate combo which is always a winner and disappears from the table in seconds.Jump ToYou'll need simple ingredients for these healthy cookies.For the full list of ingredients, please scroll down where you'll find the recipe card.Preheat oven to 350 F.Mash bananas until puree-like consistency. Set aside.In a large bowl combine butter and sugars. Beat on low with an electric hand mixer or stand mixer until smooth and creamy. Add egg, vanilla, and bananas. Mix on low until combined. Set aside.In a separate medium bowl, combine sifted flour and baking soda, baking powder, salt, and oats. Whisk to combine and add to wet ingredients gradually.Add ½ or 1 cup at a time, beat on low until combined, and then continue with the next batch.Mix until ingredients are almost combined.&nbsp;Fold in chocolate chips.Scoop 2 tablespoonfuls of dough and roll into balls. I like these cookies to be thick and rich but you can make smaller ones by using just 1 ½ tablespoons of dough per cookie ball.Arrange the cookie balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a silicone mat cookie sheet. These cookies need to be at least 2 inches apart. Don’t press them down!&nbsp;Bake for 11-13 minutes (the time varies due to different ovens) until the golden brown top. By the end of baking, the cookies should be soft in the middle and have risen up slightly.The cookies will have a quite soft center inside. Once they cool down they will set well and the texture inside remains soft, lots of banana flavor and with a creamy buttery flavor.For the chocolate chips, I like to decorate the cookies after they have baked by pressing 4-5 chocolate chips on top of the cookies.Let cool on the baking sheet for 5-10 minutes and then transfer to a wire rack.Let the oatmeal banana cookies cool before storing them completely. Transfer to airtight container and keep at room temperature for 3-5 days or freeze for 2-3 months.For easy freezing and handling, add layers of parchment paper between the cookies. This way you'll be able to thaw as much as you need in one go and let the rest stay in the freezer until next time.Variations of these banana oatmeal cookies include:Why are these cookies so soft? The mashed banana in these cookies softens the baked cookies quite a bit compared to other cookie recipes that don’t use bananas. It’s for this reason that I suggest you allow the freshly baked cookies some time to set before serving them.&nbsp; Can I make these banana oatmeal chocolate chip cookies gluten-free? Yes! You’ll need to use a gluten-free flour such as Bob’s Red Mill gluten-free flour and check the labels on the baking powder and baking soda to ensure that they were not packaged and stored in warehouses containing gluten products. Are these cookies healthy? Compared to store-bought commercial cookies, these banana oatmeal chocolate chip cookies are definitely the healthier option. Yes, they do contain sugar but none of the ingredients used are artificial and most of the ingredients are actually very wholesome.For instance, bananas are a great source of potassium which is required by our bodies to function properly. The oats provide a great source of plant-based protein and fiber - great for gut health.Thank you so much for reading about these oatmeal banana cookies.
