Ingredients
Here's the original recipe: 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature1/2 cup light brown sugar, packed1/4 cup granulated sugar1 teaspoon vanilla extract1 large egg1 large banana, mashed1 ¼ cups all purpose flour1 teaspoon baking soda1/2 teaspoon salt2 cups old fashioned oats1 cup semisweet chocolate chipsNote:To make it "better/healthier" I used light margarine instead of butter and Splenda instead of sugar.
In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine butter and sugars, mix until smooth. Add in vanilla extract and egg. Next, add the banana. Beat well.
Slowly add in flour mixture until just combined. Stir in oats and chocolate chips.
Drop cookie dough by heaping tablespoonfuls 2 inches apart onto baking sheets that have been lined with parchment paper or Silcone baking mats. Bake at 350 degrees F for 15-18 minutes or until golden. Remove cookies from pans; cool completely on wire racks.
