Last weekend after Alex and I returned from Whistler we went on something of a baking bonanza because we returned to an entire bunch of overripe bananas. I was originally planning on making banana bread but we always make banana bread so I decided to be a little more creative. Let's just say that Alex wasn't thrilled with the whole idea but I was pretty pumped to be in the kitchen. It has been so long since I had time to bake/cook that I got a little excited and overambitious (we had stock going and dinner to prep while I was baking). These cookies were the perfect breakfast cookie - they weren't too sweet and who doesn't love oatmeal and bananas for breakfast? I have no shame in admitting that I ate one or two cookies most mornings before work. I also had a few after work, but that's beside the point. Unfortunately I didn't do a very good job of mixing the dough (it is a pretty thick dough and I got a little lazy) so the distribution of chocolate chips and peanut butter chips wasn't very even, but I thought the cookies were still pretty delicious.
Recipe after the jump!
