This is the second and last installment of my “When Life Gives You Bananas” dictums. This recipe is for when you have two over-ripe bananas languishing in the fruit bowl.
This is my mom’s recipe and today, March 28, is her birthday. Lois “DeDe” Garneau died 12 years ago this month but her recipes live on. Being a woman who didn’t waste words, mom named these cookies “Banana Cookies.” Their simple name defies their depth of taste and comfort.
Excellent recipe! I baked these on March 28th in honor of your Mom. The light, cake-like texture of these cookies reminded me of cookies my Grandmother used to make. Thanks for sharing!
Cake-like texture? Oh my goodness, that sounds divine! Like a bite sized piece of heavenly banana nut bread.
Yum!
They are so light & so good! No nuts in these…they melt in your mouth! Great without the icing too!
