These peanut butter and banana cookies are a great way of using up over ripe bananas. Their texture is so chewy with its gooey, peanutty centre and they smell absolutely amazing when they come out of the oven.

These cookies also have a long shelf life for home baked goods, lasting easily 7-10 days, so they are great to fill up the cookie jar with!

These cookies are great as a moreish snack and the flavour combination of banana and peanut butter means these can work well as a quick breakfast cookie too!

These peanut and banana cookies smell amazing and have a long shelf life.

Perfect for making large batches to fill up the cookie jar!

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 180 degrees celcius.
Put the butter and peanut butter in a microwaveable bowl and melt in the microwave at 30 second intervals.
Add the sugars, egg yolk, mashed banana and vanilla essence and beat until well combined.
Mix the flour, salt and baking powder in a separate bowl.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the bowl of wet ingredients, stirring continuously until well combined.
Line a baking tray with greaseproof paper.
Spoon the cookie dough mix onto the tray in small dollops, equally spaced apart (you may need to cook a few batches to use all of the dough).
Bake for 15-18 minutes at 180 degrees, until golden.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool and set before removing from the tray using a spatula.

  I usually ask Google for it and they give to me right away. Or if you have 8 you can ask Serie.😁
