stacks of cookies on trayI refuse to let things go to waste around here. I went on a trip recently, and when I returned home, I'd noticed no one had touched the bananas, leaving them to go overripe. Were they ugly? Very. Were they useful and delicious? Absolutely! If you use your overripe bananas to make desserts, you can cut down on the amount of sugar and butter you add in the recipe. These turned out awesome!

Bananas aren't all the same, so you may want to add or subtract some of the oats you add. The cookie dough should be just like the standard cookie dough in consistency.

I wanted to make something other than just another loaf of banana bread with my overripe bananas. I took the original Quaker oatmeal cookie recipe and merged it with a couple of banana oatmeal cookie recipes on the internet and this is the result.
