Method
- Set the oven to 180°C (160°C fan) and line a baking tray with baking paper.
- Peel the bananas and mash them in a large bowl with a fork until almost smooth. The riper they are, the sweeter the cookies will be.
- Beat in the peanut butter until combined, then stir in the oats. Leave for 5 minutes so the oats soak up some of the moisture.
- Chop the dark chocolate into small chunks and fold them through.
- Drop heaped tablespoons of the mixture onto the tray, making about 12, and press each down to 1 cm thick. They will not spread in the oven.
- Bake for 15 minutes, until set and golden at the edges.
- Let them cool on the tray for 5 minutes to firm up, then eat warm or cold. They keep in a tin for 2 days.
Tip Very ripe bananas are the sweetener here, so use the blackest ones you have. Pale, firm bananas will give you a dull cookie.
