Today I want to share a tasty little cookie recipe. I try to eat at least one banana a day, I love the flavor and texture of bananas. I encourage the grand kids to eat them but Ty starts to eat one and if it breaks he won’t eat anymore. He thinks it’s broken and shouldn’t be eaten. I have tried to convince him otherwise but if you know anything about 2 year old children they have a mind of their own. lol. So after a visit from the grand kids I usually have some leftover bananas which I use to make lots of banana goodies.
You’ll need:
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon cloves
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup butter
1 cup sucanat/brown sugar
1 large egg
1 cup mashed banana (2-3 bananas)
Preheat the oven to 375 F,. Line baking sheets with parchment paper or spray lightly with oil
In a medium size bowl mix together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cloves, nutmeg, and salt. Set aside

In another bowl beat the butter and sugar (sucanat is a tan color so my cookies look darker) together with an electric hand mixer.
Add the eggs and mashed bananas until well mixed.
