You can check out the blog and original recipe for yourself here.
I modified a few things, and it they turned out so good!
Here are the ingredients I used:
2 tbsp salted butter, softened
2 tsp. vegetable oil
2 Medium Bananas
1/2 c. brown sugar
1 egg white
3/4 Cup flour (it calls for white, and that was all that I have at the moment.. but i'm going to try whole wheat next time)
1/2 tsp Baking Powder (she used 1/4 tsp. of baking soda, but I didn't have any! So I used twice as much baking powder, and it turned out great!)
1/2 Cup chocolate chips (obviously, I went over the half cup a little bit.. :)
I chose to add:
1 1/2 scoop vanilla whey protein powder.
Oven preheated to 375*
First I mashed together the bananas, brown sugar, vegetable oil and butter. Then I added in the vanilla, salt, and egg white. Slowly, I blended in the flour and baking powder. Then I added in chocolate chips and the protein powder.
This recipe advised to drop 1/2 teaspoon sized cookies onto a cookie sheet. This would make for each cookie to be approximately 34 calories. That's cool.. but I didn't do that. Mine were a full tablespoon.
If you do the mini cookies, it directs to bake for about 4-6 minutes, but mine being bigger, I baked them for about 8.
They are perfect! The banana keeps the cookies so moist, and I couldn't believe how little sugar, butter, and oil was used. I think I'll try a few healthy and different modifications in the future. I'll keep you posted :)
