These cookies were a hit! Very soft and cake-like with that yummy banana bread flavor! I increased the cinnamon to 1 tsp, added a splash of vanilla, and added 1/4 tsp pumpkin spice but it's not necessary -- just preference. Thank you for the recipe! Will defintely make again!

I liked this recipe, it was easy and quick to put together and fairly simple. I mixed it in my food processor as I do whenever I find a recipe that requires butter or shortening be "cut in". Although, it seemed they cooked very quickly and the first pan were way too dark and I didn't overcook according to the 8-10 minutes. I removed the other cookies from the oven much earlier than the first ones. The banana in the recipe is unique. I did add vanilla extract although the recipe didn't call for it.

This cookie has a nice flavor combination. It is not overly sweet, although my usual addition of chocolate chips made it perfect. The chips aren't necessary, though, for a yummy result. Could use a little more cinnamon.

These cookies are great. I upped the spices a little, as suggested by other reviewers, and scaled back on the sugar (they're plenty sweet). I only used one small banana because I didn't want it to overpower the other flavors. I added chopped walnuts and dried cranberries for run. Oh, and a tsp. of vanilla. They're delicious, I'll make them again.

These have a strange consistency when making but, OH MY, they are delish! Definately let them sit a day or 2 before rating. I bagged mine up & put them in the freezer for future lunch treats & they're heavenly!

Wow!! I was a little skeptical about making this cookie since some of the reviews were unfavorable. I was pleasantly surprised at how delicious and flavorful this cookie is. I like to "doctor" recipes but I didn't change one single thing. Great as is. Umm. Umm. Umm.

Average cookie. Soft, moist and cake-like texture. I could taste the banana but not any of the spices. Not a very nice looking cookie.

We really liked these cookies, I added 2 bananas as suggested by others and some cinnamon chips. They were moist and delicious. Even the kids at the after school program asked me to make them again.

Great cookies! Really soft. It's nice to pass snacks to the kids knowing they are good for them! I also subbed 1/2 brown sugar and used 2 bananas.

A good cookie, but very cake like. Tastes more like a muffin top, than a cookie. Light banana flavor. These remind me of the "breakfast cookies" by Quaker.

Mmmm, these are good. I followed the recipe exactly except for halving the suger, baking them a bit longer than suggested. Very nice combination of cake-y texture and flavour.

I made these cookies the first time because I wanted to make oatmeal cookies without raisins but with some kind of other flavor. The banana flavor is the best! Ever since, I've made this recipe about 5 times, and I just finished making it again. Thanks for posting!
