Ingredients

• 1 Medium banana, peeled and mashed
• 1 Cup peanut butter, creamy
• 0.5 Cup white sugar
• 0.5 Cup packed brown sugar
• 2 Large egg whites
• 2 Cups whole wheat flour
• 1 Teaspoon (tsp) baking soda
• 1 Cup rolled oats
• 1 Cup raisins
• 1 Teaspoon (tsp) vanilla extract
• 0.5 Teaspoon (tsp) cinnamon, ground
• 0.25 Teaspoon (tsp) salt

Steps

1. Preheat your oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
2. In a medium bowl, combine the mashed banana, peanut butter, white sugar, brown sugar, and vanilla extract. Stir until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
3. Add the egg whites to the wet mixture and mix until fully incorporated.
4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt.
5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix. Fold in the rolled oats and raisins until evenly distributed.
6. Using a tablespoon, drop heaping spoonfuls of the cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
7. Bake in the preheated oven for 15 to 17 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are set.
8. Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
9. Enjoy these cookies warm for a soft, chewy texture or store them in an airtight container for up to a week.
