Clodagh's kitchen

Banana Cookies

This easter weekend myself and clodagh decided we wanted to bake cookies with a twist. You see we didn't want to bake the normal everyday chocolate chip option that for some reason leaves a void in the tummy, so instead clodagh got creative, took a look in the fridge and whipped out a banana. At first I was very skeptical but went with the flow of the saturday night hunger.

Ingredients

1 Banana

1/3 a cup of butter alternatively you can use an avocado for the healtier option here

1 cup of plain or creamed flour

1/2 teaspoon of vanilla essence

Chocolate chips, not too much but have some fun

1 teaspoon of baking powder

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare your baking tray we used an oven tray lined with greaseproof paper.

Step 1: Mash your banana in a bowl using a fork this works best to get all those tiny pieces of banana mashed up right n good.

Step 2: Mix your mashed banana, chocolate chips and vanilla essence together give this a good mix up get your hands stuck in don't be afraid to get dirty.

Step 3: Add your dry ingredients being the plain / creamed flour & your baking powder.

Step 4: Separate into dough balls and flatten these with the palm of your hand gently on the baking tray you prepared earlier.

Step 5: Bake for 10-15 minutes at 180 degrees.

Step 6: Let them cool down and set or 10 minutes. Then heres the best part you get to eat them.
