These healthy banana oatmeal cookies are perfect for using up ripe bananas.

This recipe is flourless, and the sweetness is added via ripe bananas, with a taste of honey. And chocolate chips, because, if you follow us at all you know we love our chocolate, whether it’s chocolate cupcakes, healthy chocolate fruit dip, or mini Baileys and chocolate cheesecakes.

How to Make Banana Breakfast Cookies

First, preheat your oven to 375 Fahrenheit, and line a 11 x 17 baking sheet with parchment paper. These are big cookies!

Add oats, pumpkin seeds, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda, and salt into a large bowl and mix. These are your dry ingredients.

Next, add mashed banana, peanut butter, honey, vanilla, pecans, and chocolate chips to dry ingredients and mix.

Now, you’re ready to form your cookies. Using a 1/4 cup measuring cup, place cookies onto parchment paper.

I like this affordable Rubbermaid Measuring Cup Set for easy measuring.

Flatten the top of each cookie on the parchment paper by pressing down lightly with your fingers.

Cookies will not spread, so this is their final shape.

Bake for 15 minutes. The bottom should be lightly golden brown.

Let cool slightly before eating!

Omit the honey for slightly less sweet cookies and less sugar.

Use Gluten free certified oats for gluten free cookies.

Substitute vegan maple syrup or agave for honey for vegan cookies. I love the maple syrup version - so good!
