Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F (176°C).
Either mash bananas by hand or use a hand mixer to blend until smooth and creamy. Add remaining ingredients and mix well.
Drop batter onto a lined cookie sheet into scant 1/4 cup globs (should make 12 cookies). Bake in preheated oven for 8-10 minutes until firm, but not overly done.
Remove and let sit for 10 minutes before moving cookies to a cooling rack to cool completely. Will last for 3 days in an airtight container on the countertop.
