Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and make clean-up easier.

- Form Cookies: Drop spoonfuls of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, then gently flatten each spoonful slightly to form cookie shapes.
- Bake: Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake the cookies for 15-18 minutes, or until the edges turn a golden brown color, indicating they are done.
- Cool: Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Store and Serve: Enjoy the cookies fresh or store them in an airtight container for up to one week for a convenient and healthy breakfast or snack option.
Notes
- You can substitute the honey with maple syrup to keep the recipe vegan.
- Make sure the bananas are very ripe for maximum sweetness and flavor.
- These cookies can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week.
- Feel free to add nuts or seeds for extra crunch and nutrition.
- If you want a firmer cookie, bake a few minutes longer but be careful not to burn.
