Directions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

In a large mixing bowl, cream together the sugar and shortening until light and fluffy. Mix in the bananas and egg and mix well, scraping down the sides of the bowl. Mix in the vanilla.

In a separate large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, flour, baking soda, cinnamon, salt and nutmeg. Mix until thoroughly combined.

Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix just until combined. It will be a wet cookie dough. Stir in the chocolate chips.

Using a 2 spoons or an ice cream scoop is a great way to portion cookies with wetter doughs like this one. Portion cookies out using overflowing tablespoonfuls on 2 ungreased cookie sheets, 12 cookies per sheet. Bake just until golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes. After 10 minutes, turn and swap the cookie sheets on each rack for even cooking. Cool on a wire rack.

    This is the easiest cookie recipe ever! They taste so good it is hard to stop eating them. I deviated from the recipe slightly by using semi sweet chocolate chips and making them smaller - half the size (a heaping TBL of dough, yielding over 48 cookies and half the oven time. Often, I forget to take the butter out of the refrigerator to soften, when I plan to bake - not a problem with this recipe, since it calls for shortening. Worth all the five star ratings!

    Love this recipe, I made it a couple of weeks ago and am making it again today. I am trying semi-sweet chocolate chips. Love the banana-bread-in-a-cookie taste!!!

    My husband loved this cookie! Although, we used the regular semi-sweet chocolate chips, instead of the milk chocolate. We will be making these often!
