Introduction

Chewy, coconutty, and studded with chocolate chips, these cookies are a crowd pleaser and cake sale favourite. Banana is a great plant-based egg substitute when baking and adds a sweet, mild banana flavour.

Ingredients

1medium very ripe banana, peeled
75ggranulated sugar
60gbrown sugar
80mlgrapeseed oil
1 tspvanilla extract
125gplain flour
170grolled oats
1/2 tspbicarbonate of soda
1/2 tspground cinnamon
1/4 tspsea salt
50gdark chocolate chips
4 tbspunsweetened dried coconut

Method

Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F/Gas 4). Line 2 baking sheets with baking parchment.

In a medium bowl, mash the banana with the sugars, grapeseed oil, and vanilla extract until smooth.

Stir the flour, rolled oats, bicarbonate of soda, cinnamon, salt, dark chocolate chips, and coconut into the banana mixture, using your hands to ensure the mixture is well combined. It will be very thick.

Scoop 3.75cm (1½in) balls of dough onto the baking sheets, spacing them about 6cm (2½in) apart. Using wet hands, gently pat down the cookies into 5cm (2in) rounds. Some chocolate chips might separate from the mixture, if they do just pat them back into the cookies.

Bake for 12–14 minutes or until cookies are golden. Cool for 3 minutes on baking sheets, and then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Cookies will keep in an airtight container for up to 5 days (if they last that long!).

Tip: For Nutty Banana-Coco-Oat Cookies, replace the coconut with 40g (1½oz) of finely chopped toasted walnuts or pecans – or use both.
