Ingredients
1 3/4 cups flour1/2 cup sugar1 tsp baking powder1/4 tsp salt1/2 mashed ripe banana (about 1 banana)1 tbsp canola oil1 large egg1 tsp vanilla1/2 cup chopped walnuts or pecans

-Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface, divide in half, and shape each piece into an 8" long log. Place the logs 2"-3" apart on a cookie sheet that has been sprayed with nonstick spray and flatten each into a rectangle that is about 3" wide.
-Bake for 30-35 minutes, until firm and cracked on top. Transfer the log to a wire rack to cool for 15 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 275 degrees F.
-Place the logs on a cutting board, trim the ends and cut each log diagonally into 1/2"-3/4" thick slices with a serrated knife. Place the slices cut side down on a cookie sheet. Return to the oven for 20 minutes, then flip the cookies over and bake for another 20 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool.
