Equipment Needed

  • Large mixing bowl
  • Fork or potato masher
  • Measuring cups & spoons
  • Baking sheet
  • Parchment paper or silicone baking mat
  • Cookie scoop or two spoons
  • Wire cooling rack

Ingredients (Makes 10–12 Cookies)

  • 2 ripe bananas, mashed
  • 1 cup rolled oats (not instant)
  • ½ cup fresh or frozen blueberries
  • ¼ cup honey or maple syrup
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • ½ tsp ground cinnamon (optional, adds warmth)
  • Pinch of salt

Step-by-Step Instructions

Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 15–20 minutes
Total Time: 25–30 minutes
Yield: 10–12 cookies

Step 1: Preheat & Prep

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2: Mash Bananas

In a large bowl, mash the bananas with a fork until mostly smooth.

Step 3: Add Wet Ingredients

Stir in honey (or maple syrup) and vanilla extract until well combined.

Step 4: Mix in Dry Ingredients

Add rolled oats, cinnamon, and salt. Stir until oats are fully coated.

Step 5: Fold in Blueberries

Gently fold in the blueberries (don’t overmix to avoid crushing).

Step 6: Form Cookies

Scoop spoonfuls onto prepared baking sheet, flattening slightly.

Step 7: Bake

Bake 15–20 minutes, until edges are golden and cookies are set.

Step 8: Cool & Enjoy

Cool on the sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack.

Pro Tips for Success

  •  Use very ripe bananas — they add natural sweetness and moisture.
  •  If using frozen blueberries, don’t thaw them first — prevents excess moisture.
  •  Flatten cookies before baking — they won’t spread on their own.
  •  Freeze individually — place baked cookies on a tray, freeze, then store in a bag.

Variations to Try

  • Nutty Boost – add ¼ cup chopped walnuts, almonds, or pecans
  • Chocolate Lovers – fold in dark chocolate chips with blueberries
  • Tropical Twist – swap blueberries for dried cranberries + shredded coconut
  • Vegan Version – use maple syrup instead of honey

FAQ

Q: Can I use quick oats instead of rolled oats?
Yes, but the cookies will be softer and less chewy. Rolled oats work best.

Q: How do I store them?
Keep in an airtight container: 3 days at room temp, 1 week in the fridge, or up to 3 months frozen.

Q: Are these sweet enough for kids?
Yes! Bananas, blueberries, and honey make them naturally sweet — no refined sugar needed.
