I altered these slightly but dang they are good! They turned out really muffin like in texture, but they're still yum. I personally don't like using shortening, so I used 1/4 cup butter and a half cup of applesauce in its place, I also cut the sugar down to about 3/4C. Thank you for this great recipe!!!

Love these! They are a great way to use up ripe bananas. Remind me of banana nut muffin tops. I followed the recipe exactly except I used pecans instead of walnuts. I will consider adding raisins in the future.

Delicious cookies. For health concerns, I had to substitute the shortening for becel olive oil margarine and the egg for "egg creation" liquid egg white, but it worked out perfectly. I did add chocolate chips and 1tsp cocoa for my chocolate craving but I'm sure they would have been delightful without it. The texture is soft and yes cake like, but I like them this way. A perfect little desert. My baking time was 10min but then again my oven is not new and tends to bake a little hotter. I gave it 4 stars because of the changes, but a definite 5 stars for taste. Thanks so much.

This is a great recipe; a nice change from banana bread. I didn't have the nuts so I added extra oats, though I will try them with nuts the next time I make these. They were crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. After I put one cookie sheet in the oven, I added raisins and flax seeds to the remaining dough. Both versions were awesome.

Delicious! I replaced 1/4 cup of the shortening with apple sauce and cut the sugar down to 3/4 cup. They came out great. More of a muffin texture than a cookie but still great! Made some for a friend and her two year old daughter loved them!

I wanted a Gluten free option to use up my old bananas. Used 1/4 cup applesauce cut down on the butter, 1/2 & 1/2 white/brown sugar, mini chocolate chips, added some baking spice and 1/2 tsp. vanilla. Used gluten free all purpose baking flour and gluten free oats. Seemed a bit runny but spooned it out in small amounts made the perfect size cookie and was not cakey. Used wax paper because they seemed a bit sticky but baked until the edges were really brown and they came out great. Not dry or hard. Just right. Yummy!!!

Yummy! They remind me of the cookies my mom used to make. Like little bites of banana bread. In fact, if I call them "Banana Oatmeal cookies" my kids won't eat them. But if I call them "Banana Bread Bites" they gobble them up!

I thought these were delicious! Loved the cakey texture. I subsituted chocolate chips instead of nuts, and used half butter/half applesauce, instead of shortening. Cooked for bout 12-13 minutes. Boyfriend and my mother loved them! Both are health freaks and gobbled them up when i told them they were on the "low fat" side. Def will make again

I added a bit more cinnamon and nutmeg, also omitted the walnuts (didn't have any). None the less, they came out PERFECT! I would recommend this to anyone and will defiantly make again! I would recommend refrigerating the batter for a few before baking, so they don't flatten out. Again, I love this cookie!!
