Peanut Butter Banana Oatmeal Cookies - cooking recipe

Ingredients

3/4 cup creamy peanut butter
3/4 cup white sugar
1/4 cup brown sugar
1 egg
1 cup mashed bananas or 4 medium bananas
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup whole wheat flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
3/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1 3/4 cups oatmeal
1/2 1/2 cup chocolate chips or 1/2 cup raisins

Preparation

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
In a medium bowl, wisk together flours, baking soda, salt, nutmeg, and cinnamon. Stir in oatmeal and set aside.
In a large bowl, cream together peanut butter and sugars. Add egg and banana and mix well.
Pour dry ingredients into wet ingredients bowl and mix together thoroughly with large spoon. Stir in nuts, chocolate chips, or raisins (I used raisins in my first batch -- didn't have either nuts or chocolate chips).
Batter will be fairly wet, so put bowl in fridge for 15 minutes to firm up.
Prepare baking sheets with parchment paper. Drop cookie dough by teaspoons onto sheets. Bake for 12-13 minutes. Cool on racks. (Note: return bowl to fridge in between baking.) Makes 36-45 cookies, depending on how big they are.
