How to Make Banana Bread Cookies

  1. Step 1

    Preheat the oven to 350°F and line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.

  2. Step 2

    In a large bowl, combine the mashed banana, applesauce, brown sugar, egg yolk and vanilla extract and mix until just combined.

  3. Step 3

    Sift together the flours, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt into a separate large bowl. In small batches, add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients and mix until well combined.

  4. Step 4

    Lightly spray the parchment paper with nonstick cooking spray. Spoon the dough onto the prepared baking sheet by rounded tablespoonfuls, spacing each mound of dough 2-inches apart. Bake for 10 to 11 minutes, or until the edges are set and the cookies have risen. Allow to cool completely before enjoying.
