These blueberry banana cookies are soft, chewy, and naturally sweetened with fruit. A healthy, one-bowl recipe perfect for breakfast, snack, or lunchbox.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup mashed ripe bananas (about 2 bananas)
  • 1½ cups rolled oats
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1/3 cup chocolate chips
  • 1/3 cup fresh blueberries
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup or honey
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1 teaspoon neutral oil (such as avocado or sunflower oil)


Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a bowl, mash the bananas until smooth.
  3. Stir in the maple syrup, vanilla, cinnamon, salt, oil, and baking powder.
  4. Add the oats and flour, and mix until combined.
  5. Fold in the chocolate chips and blueberries.
  6. Scoop tablespoon-sized portions onto the baking sheet. Flatten slightly.
  7. Bake for 13 to 15 minutes, or until golden and set.
  8. Let cool completely on the baking sheet before serving.

Notes

  • Banana Ripeness Matters: Use soft, spotty bananas for better sweetness and moisture. Firmer bananas can make the dough dry.
  • Do Not Skip the Flour: Just 2 tablespoons of flour help hold the shape and give structure without making the cookies cakey.
  • Baking Powder = Lift: That tiny amount gives the cookies a slight rise and prevents them from being too flat or dense.
  • Oil for Tenderness: A teaspoon of neutral oil helps soften the crumb and adds a bit of richness without butter.
  • Don’t Overmix: Gently fold in the blueberries last to keep them whole and avoid streaking the dough.
  • Cool on the Tray: Cookies firm up as they cool, so let them rest on the baking sheet before moving.
