Ingredients

  • ripe bananas2 ea
  • unsweetened shredded coconut170 g
  • chocolate chips — optional85 g

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, mash the bananas. Add the shredded coconut and use a fork to mix with the bananas until well combined.
  3. Using a medium 1.5 tablespoon cookie scoop, scoop rounded balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 5 cm (2 inches) between each. Press down to flatten. Makes 12–13 cookies.
  4. Meanwhile, place the chocolate chips in a small bowl and microwave in 20-second bursts, stirring each time, until smooth and runny.
  5. Bake for 12–15 minutes, until the cookies look set and the coconut is golden. Drizzle with the melted chocolate and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
