- Storage. Store leftover cookies in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3-4 days. You can also freeze them for up to 2 months. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator before enjoying.
- Use ripe bananas. The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more flavorful your cookies will be. Overripe bananas with brown spots are ideal for this recipe as they mash easily and provide natural sweetness.
- Flatten the cookies. Since these cookies don't spread much during baking, flatten them slightly with your hands before baking to achieve your desired thickness.
- Experiment with mix-ins. Feel free to customize your cookies by adding in extras like shredded coconut, dried fruit, or seeds for added texture and flavor.
