These soft cookies have been a big hit with my husband and others who have tried them - I'm sure I will be making them often, especially when I end up with some overripe bananas!

I triple this recipe. Everyone in my family loves them, and my daughter's school friends and my husband's coworkers. To make it a little bit healthier, I use half spelt flour (whole grain) and half all purpose. I also mash the bananas with the baking soda and let them froth while I mix the other wet ingredients, which makes the cookies a little fluffier (Alton Brown explains the science of it). Love them, make them often!

I made this recipe last night, OMG it was so good. It taste life a cookie muffin. I will be making this recipe all the time to curve my sweet tooth for chocolate chip cookies.

I missed the part that said they would be cake-like haha. oops. not bad though. I replaced the sugar with honey, and the butter with applesauce to make a bit healthier. also, used peanut butter chips, instead of regular. I think I'll keep the recipe saved, but instead of making like cookies, I'll pour the batter in the 15x10 pan and make bars to cut out? we'll see how that one goes!

These should be called,what they really are, which is pancakes! They come out the same, which is fine but not what I was expecting. I will make these again but play with the recipe some.

Very tasty - I like that the cookies are nice & fluffy, and have just the right amount of banana flavor.

For my cookies, I followed the recipe - except I used a whole banana rather than measuring the amount.

Will save this recipe to make again.

Delicious recipe! I made it with almond flour instead of all purpose flour, so it needed an additional cup. Talk about the best chocolate/banana/nut flavor EVER! YUM!!!

This recipe was okay; I didn't have much against it; it was just a little boring. The only problem was that my family ate some of them, then lost interest. I really like bananas, but I will probably stick with banana bread. Banana cookies are interesting- so don't just take my judgement into account, you may like them.
