I hope you like it! Our family had them gone in no time at all. Bananas, peanut butter and walnuts are too hard to pass up.

Malin – first of all, great name! Thanks for commenting. I agree this recipe is a great use of bananas.

Mary – These are a must make because they have enough healthy ingredients in them that if you squint your eyes while eating them, you can convince yourself that they’re healthy. I think they are definitely less unhealthy than most cookies. Hope you enjoy!

What a great idea to add oatmeal. I’m going to have to try that next time too. I think we have a similar trait – I love to adapt recipes. It’s so much fun! You never know what you’re going to come up with. The funny thing is, I’m exactly the opposite when we go out to eat. I find something I like and I order it almost every time!

We buy our peanut butter in bulk from Costco because we use it so much here. I hope he likes the surprise!

These cookies would be especially good dipped in chocolate almond milk. Next step? Make some chocolate almond milk!

Well, I’m glad you think so. Could you tell my husband? I think he still has some doubts!

I’ve just made these … I replaced 1/2 the flour with 2 cups of oats to them to make them chunkier … added some spices (ginger and cinnamon) … really yummy!! Since mine were chunkier they took longer to cook. I think next time I will replace the walnuts with peanuts to make it peanut-nuttier! (also used regular buttermilk and butter). Thanks for a yummy recipe to use up bananas that wasn’t banana bread!

I am with everyone…I love the combo of these flavors. Your picture is so pretty too! After a long day of traveling, I would love to dip one of these into a warm glass of chocolate almond milk. Yum!

You’re a genius! I love this combo of flavors in a cookie! And they are so thick and…chunky! Such a fitting name.
