Oatmeal Banana Bread Cookies step by step

1. Put oatmeal and bananas in a medium bowl, and mush the bananas into the oatmeal, using a fork..
2. In a separate bowl, mix butter, cinnamon, sugar, and brown sugar until evenly blended. (I heated mine in the microwave for about 10-15seconds, so the butter was warm, and helped devolve the sugars better.).
3. Add the egg and vanilla. Whisk until texture is smooth..
4. Add the flour and baking soda to the banana/oatmeal mixture. Mix together evenly..
5. Pour the liquid mixture onto the flour/oatmeal - mix together until texture is a little bit more runny than cookie dough. I add 1-3 tablespoons of flour while mixing to get a little bit better consistency; also adding more sugars, cinnamon, and vanilla. You don't want it too doughy tho, it's suppose to be a little runny..
6. Add raisins or nuts now, if you want. Preheat oven to 350?F..
7. Using a tablespoon, drop cookies onto a non stick cookie sheet, or lightly greased one. (The tablespoon will drop them into little balls, keep them that shape, the heat of the oven will form them into cookies.).
8. Bake for 14-18 minutes. When the edges become a golden brown they're ready. Cool them on a wire rack for a couple minutes, and enjoy! xox.
