Ingredients
- 2 ripe bananas
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
Preheat the Oven
- Set your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking tray with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Mash the Bananas
- Peel and mash 2 ripe bananas in a large mixing bowl until smooth and creamy.
Add Vanilla Extract
- Add 1 teaspoon vanilla extract to the mashed bananas and mix until fully combined.
Mix in Oats
- Add 1 cup rolled oats to the bowl. Stir well until the oats are fully coated in banana mixture.
Add Chocolate Chips
- Fold in 1/2 cup chocolate chips gently so they are evenly distributed in the cookie dough.
Scoop the Cookies
- Use a spoon to scoop portions of dough onto the lined baking tray. Leave space between each cookie.
Flatten the Cookies
- Slightly flatten each cookie with the back of the spoon. This helps them bake evenly and stay chewy.
Bake the Cookies
- Place the tray in the oven and bake for 10–12 minutes or until edges are slightly golden brown.
Cool the Cookies
- Remove cookies from oven and let them cool on the tray for 5 minutes. They will firm up as they cool.
Serve and Enjoy
- Once cooled, serve your 4 Ingredient Chewy Chocolate Oat Cookies immediately or store for later.
Notes
- Use very ripe bananas for natural sweetness and softness.
- Roll oats can be substituted with quick oats if needed.
- Press cookies lightly to maintain chewy texture.
- Add extra chocolate chips for more chocolatey flavor.
- Store in an airtight container to keep cookies soft.
