Ingredients
2 1/4 Cups Whole Wheat Flour 3/4 Cup Granulated Sugar3/4 Cup Brown Sugar1 Cup Non-Hydrogenated Margarine, softened 1 ripe banana, mashed1 tsp salt1 tsp baking soda1 tsp vanilla extract1 tsp cinnamon
Directions
Preheat oven to 350 F. In a small bowl, mix together the flour, the salt, and the baking soda. In a large bowl, beat the margarine, the brown sugar, and the granulated sugar until smooth. Add the mashed banana and the vanilla extract. Gradually add the flour while beating. Drop the mix by spoonfuls on an ungreased baking sheet, leaving 1-inch spaces in between. Bake for 10 minutes or until the edges are golden brown.

*note: I was able to produce 75 cookies, they were small, I think the picture may be misleading to their size. They appear to be rather large, but in reality were quite small.

     I am I vegan, so instead of the 'non-hydrogenated margarine' I used apple sauce. Just one of the treetop lunch cups was all. They were soo good and less fat :) - 7/1/10

     Tastes like banana bread. Something missing still. Maybe next time I'll add more cinnamon or pie spice or even another banana (I used 2). I also used 1/4 cup white and 1/4 cup brown sugar. They were plenty sweet and a really nice treat. We don't normally have any sweets in house. Thanks. - 7/18/09

     They tasted good but i'm not sure I ever got them done and I cooked them about 20 minutes and then they stuck to the sheet. And a couple spread out so much they fell over the edge onto the bottom of the oven so it currently stinks like burnt in my house, not that I blame the recipe for that. - 11/11/09

     Love these! The first time I made them (oh yes I've made them more than once) I followed the recipe and found them to be too sweet since then I've used 1 cup of sugar and they are perfect!
    I'd like to try other fruit like apple instead of banana will this effect the binding of the mixture? Thanks - 6/13/09

     These were super good. Packed some up for my Husband as he left on his trucking trip. Like packing up a lot of Healthy stuffy for when he leaves to go on the road. - 10/4/20

     That's a lot of sugar. I never use margarine of any kind, I tried them with Crisco, They were ok. - 7/31/20

     These are amazing! I managed to get the 75 cookies, and I didn't think they were too small. Perfect cookie size. My brother has been gobbling them down left and right. - 8/12/12

     absolutely delicious and quick to make. My 2yr old and I just made these together and are now sitting down with a glass of milk and a freshly baked cookie.
    Added an extra banana and used less butter and sugar. - 3/27/11

     Very good! My children and I enjoyed them.I cut back the sugar to 1c. Total. And theywere plenty sweet. I used a cookie scoop and got 51cookies. I live @ high altitude and had great results. The cookies were soft and didn't spread out much. I'll definitely make them again. - 2/5/11

     Awesome, simple cookies! I love using whole wheat flour instead of white in recipes. Thanks! - 7/16/09
  • KSABBY
     I made 46 cookies with these using a pampered chef cookie dropper that is about a TBSP. I was stingy with my scoops. I also found that even though the recipe says "ungreased baking sheet" but my cookies came out a lot better after i greased them. They were yummy. I would make them again. - 11/13/08
