Tips:

Overripe bananas are the best for baking. They're naturally sweeter and have a creamier texture, which makes for a more delicious and moist cookie.
If you don't have old fashion oats, old quick oats will do, just be sure to use 1/2 cup less, as they absorb more liquid.
Be sure to mash the bananas well before adding them to the other ingredients. This will help to create a smooth batter.
Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the cookies tough.
Bake the cookies until they are just set around the edges. Overbaking will make the cookies dry.
Let the cookies cool on a wire rack before enjoying them. This will help them to firm up and develop their full flavor.

Conclusion:

These banana oatmeal cookies are a delicious and healthy snack that are perfect for breakfast, lunch, or a dessert. They're easy to make and only require a few simple ingredients. Plus, they're a great way to use up overripe bananas. So next time you have some bananas that are on their last legs, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
