A few weeks ago while at the store for my weekly grocery trip, I gently nestled a bunch of perfectly yellow bananas into my shopping cart. For a while during graduate school, I ate a banana every morning as part of my breakfast, and although I switched to drinking this protein smoothie a couple years ago instead, I recently started to miss my morning banana ritual.
I continued walking around the produce section, picking up fruit for my favorite apple crumble and these incredible oatmeal cookies (have you tried either of those yet?? SO good!), along with vegetables for dinner. Once I crossed everything off of my list, I headed up to the front registers to pay.
When I unpacked my bags at home, I realized the checkout clerk hadn’t been quite as careful with those bananas… They ended up beneath a sack of flour, and one had already turned brown and bruised.
So I set that one aside and used it to make these Healthy Banana Chocolate Chip Cookies a few days later. They’re one of my most popular recipes—and for a good reason! They’re perfectly chewy, full of sweet fruity flavor, and packed with chocolate. Plus they contain no eggs, refined flour or sugar and only 90 calories!
Watch my video below to see just how easy they are to make, then grab my recipe directly beneath the video!
These cookies would go over well here at my house. Anytime I am baking something I seem to get distracted too! I totally feel ya!
