Perfect for dunking into hot milk OR coffee, whichever you like to drink this with! This is a cookie version of the ever-famous Banana bread, the Banana Bread Cookies!

Tips and Tricks for Making This Banana Bread Cookies Recipe: 

• Before baking this cookie, make sure you have refrigerated the dough for at least 30 minutes or longer. It improves the texture of the cookies and makes the cookie dough so much easier to scoop out.
• If you love a bit of texture in your cookies, don’t hesitate to add in oatmeal to this recipe. Just make sure that the kind of oatmeal you use is baked or cooked very quickly since the baking time of this cookie is just under ten minutes or ten minutes the most.
• When spacing the cookie dough on your baking mat, make sure to give at least 2 inches of space apart for each dough. This would allow the cookies to spread and they won’t stick together after baking.
