1-How to Prepare the Perfect Banana Cookies: Step-by-Step Guide: Ready to bake some delicious banana cookies? Start by preheating your oven to 375Β°F (190Β°C) and lining two baking sheets with parchment paper. This step makes cleanup easy and helps your cookies bake evenly. In a small bowl, whisk together the flour, cornstarch, baking powder, baking soda, and salt to get that base just right.
2-How to Prepare the Perfect Banana Cookies: Step-by-Step Guide: Next, in a large bowl, beat the softened butter and packed light brown sugar until itβs light and fluffy this creates the perfect texture. Then, mix in the mashed ripe banana, vanilla extract, and the room temperature large egg until everything blends smoothly. Gradually stir the dry ingredients into the wet mixture using a silicone spatula until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
3-How to Prepare the Perfect Banana Cookies: Step-by-Step Guide: Now, use a 1.5-tablespoon cookie scoop to drop dough rounds onto your prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Pop them in the oven and bake for 10 minutes, or until theyβre lightly browned. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before moving them to a wire rack to cool completely. Youβll end up with cookies that are crispy on the edges and soft inside, just like banana bread in cookie form.
