Ingredients

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

Steps

1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for a more even bake.
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the mashed banana, peanut butter, white sugar, and brown sugar. Stir until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
3. Add the egg whites and vanilla extract to the mixture, and whisk until fully incorporated.
4. In a separate bowl, sift together the whole wheat flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Gradually add this dry mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined.
5. Gently fold in the rolled oats and raisins, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
6. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Drop heaping spoonfuls of the cookie dough onto the prepared 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 your cookies warm for a soft, chewy texture, or store them in an airtight container for up to a week.
