Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper, then set aside.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, mash the bananas with a fork until they are soft and creamy, like the consistency of chunky soup.

Step 3

Add the oats and peanut butter to the bowl. Stir until a thick dough forms.

Step 4

Fold in the chocolate chips with a rubber spatula or large spoon until evenly incorporated throughout the dough.

Step 5

Use a small cookie scoop to drop evenly-sized cookies onto the prepared baking sheet. Use your hands or the back of a spatula to flatten the cookies. They do not spread while baking, so make sure they are the right size and shape before you put them in the oven.

Step 6

Bake the cookies for 10-15 minutes, or until the edges are set up and the color is slightly golden brown. Do not overbake them, they will continue to cook as they cool.

Step 7

Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for 10 minutes before transferring them to a cooling rack. Enjoy!
