Let&#8217;s quickly go over the ingredients needed for this recipe.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>All-purpose flour:&nbsp;<\/strong>Be sure to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/how-to-measure-flour\/\">spoon and level the flour<\/a> when measuring it. This will prevent you from accidentally measuring out too much.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<li><strong>Baking soda:&nbsp;<\/strong>Gives the cookies some lift.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Ground cinnamon and salt:&nbsp;<\/strong>Add lots of flavor and perfectly complement the mashed banana. &nbsp;<\/li>\n<li><strong>Unsalted butter:&nbsp;<\/strong>Always use unsalted butter when baking, because the amount of salt in salted butters can vary between brands.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<li><strong>Sugar:&nbsp;<\/strong>I used a mixture of granulated sugar and light brown sugar to make this recipe. The mashed banana is already quite sweet, so I used slightly less sugar than I would in a typical cookie recipe.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<li><strong>Bananas:<\/strong>&nbsp;Make sure to use overripe bananas with a lot of brown specks on them. If you need to ripen your bananas faster, place them in a brown paper bag for a couple of days.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Egg yolk:&nbsp;<\/strong>The mashed banana helps bind together the cookie dough, so you need just one egg yolk. Save the egg white in an airtight container to use in your morning egg scramble.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<li><strong>Vanilla extract:&nbsp;<\/strong>Pure vanilla extract will give the best flavor.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<li><strong>Walnuts: <\/strong>These are completely optional, so feel free to omit them or swap them out with another mix-in like chocolate chips.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div class=\"tiled-gallery type-rectangular tiled-gallery-unresized\" data-original-width=\"500\" data-carousel-extra='null' itemscope itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/ImageGallery\" > <div class=\"gallery-row\" style=\"width: 500px;

To do so, scoop the cookie dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, slightly flatten each ball of cookie dough, and freeze for 1 to 2 hours.<\/p>\n<p>Then, store in a large freezer bag in the freezer for up to 3 months.
