Description
These soft and chewy 3-ingredient banana cookies are naturally vegan, oil-free, and refined sugar-free. Perfect for quick snacks, they’re easy to make and taste like banana bread in cookie form.
Ingredients
- 2 medium bananas (about 236 grams total, peeled)
- 1/4 cup maple syrup
- 1 cup self-rising flour
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Line a baking tray with parchment paper and lightly grease it.
- In a medium mixing bowl, mash the bananas with a fork until mostly smooth. Measure to ensure you have about 1 cup of mashed banana.
- Add the maple syrup to the mashed bananas and stir until well combined.
- Add the self-rising flour and mix gently until a thick, sticky dough forms.
- Scoop spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking tray, leaving space between each cookie.
- Use the back of a spoon to gently shape the dough into round cookies if desired.
- Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, until the tops are set and lightly golden.
- Let the cookies cool slightly before removing them from the tray.
Notes
- Use yellow bananas for best texture and balanced sweetness.
- Add-ins like chocolate chips, nuts, or spices can enhance flavor.
- Do not expect cookies to spread—shape them before baking.
- Cookies can be stored in the fridge for up to 3 days or frozen for 1 month.
