Description
Warm, soft, and subtly sweet, these Almond Flour Banana Cookies are a quick treat made with simple ingredients.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 ripe bananas
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1/4 cup honey or maple syrup
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat. Lightly grease if needed.
- Mash the ripe bananas until smooth in a mixing bowl. Add the almond flour, honey or maple syrup, baking soda, vanilla extract, and salt, and mix until a sticky dough forms. If using chocolate chips, fold them in gently.
- Drop spoonfuls (about 1 to 1.5 tablespoons each) of the dough onto the lined baking sheet, spacing them about 1.5 inches apart. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until the edges are golden and the centers are set.
- Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
For best results, use very ripe bananas and keep cookie sizes small for even baking. These cookies are perfect for school lunches or a healthy snack.
