Ingredients
  

1 cup overripe bananas (about 2 medium bananas), mashed

1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened

1/2 cup brown sugar, packed

1/4 cup granulated sugar

1 large egg

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour

1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

1/2 cup chopped walnuts or pecans (optional)

Instructions
 

Preheat the oven: Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lining a baking sheet with parchment paper.

    Mix wet ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar together until creamy and smooth. Add in the mashed bananas, egg, and vanilla extract, mixing until fully incorporated.

      Combine dry ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add this dry mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined.

        Add chocolate and nuts: Gently fold in the chocolate chips and, if using, the chopped nuts until they are evenly distributed throughout the cookie dough.

          Scoop cookies: Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches of space between each cookie for spreading.

            Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and the centers are set.

              Cool: Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

                Enjoy: Serve warm and enjoy your delightful Banana Bread Chocolate Chip Cookies with a glass of milk or your favorite beverage!
