EASY KIDS' RECIPE FOR FLUFFY BANANA COOKIES
I should rename these to the Houdini cookies, with how fast they vanish from my kitchen. Very fluffy and delicious. My daughter just turned one and loves to help make these. She pulls the paper from the butter, peels the bananas, mashes and mixes. It's so fast and easy. Any time we have a couple bananas going brown we mix up these. The recipe originated as my grandmother's banana bread, but one day I was in a rush and didn't want to wait an hour for the bread to bake so I tossed them in as cookies and we all agreed it came out better this way.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 350 degrees.
- Mix all ingredients until moist.
- (I use old-fashioned rolled oats, but imagine you could use quick-cook oats instead).
- Mixture will be gooey and sticky.
- That is normal.
- Drop by tablespoonful onto ungreased baking sheet.
- Flatten to desired thickness and shape, as cookies WILL NOT spread on baking.
- Bake at 350 degrees for 15 minutes.
- Remove to wire rack to cool.
Tips:
- Choose ripe bananas: The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more flavorful your cookies will be.
- Use old-fashioned oats: Old-fashioned oats will give your cookies a chewy texture. If you use quick oats, your cookies will be more cakey.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make your cookies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Chill the dough before baking: Chilling the dough for at least 30 minutes will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
- Bake the cookies until they are just set: The cookies should be slightly brown around the edges and the tops should be matte. If you overbake the cookies, they will be dry and crumbly.
Conclusion:
These banana oatmeal sponge cookies are a delicious and healthy snack for kids and adults alike. They are easy to make and can be customized with your favorite mix-ins. So next time you are looking for a healthy and satisfying snack, give these cookies a try!
