If you love the warm flavor of banana bread but want something you can snack on quickly, these cookies are perfect for you. They are soft, chewy, and naturally sweetened, making them a fantastic choice for when those afternoon cravings hit.

I recommend using very ripe bananas with plenty of brown spots to get the best natural sweetness. If you want to keep these dairy free, you can swap the cream cheese frosting for a simple nut butter drizzle or just enjoy them plain.

Ingredients

2 large ripe bananas, mashed
1/2 cup almond flour
1/4 cup coconut flour
1/4 cup maple syrup
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
4 ounces cream cheese, softened
2 tablespoons honey

Instructions

1
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2
In a large bowl, mix the mashed bananas, maple syrup, and vanilla extract until smooth.
3
Stir in the almond flour, coconut flour, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt until a thick dough forms.
4
Scoop tablespoon sized portions of dough onto your prepared baking sheet and flatten them slightly with a spoon.
5
Bake for 12 to 15 minutes or until the edges are golden brown.
6
While the cookies cool, whisk the softened cream cheese and honey together until creamy.
7
Once the cookies are completely cool, frost the tops with the cream cheese mixture and serve.

💡 Tips

Store these cookies in an airtight container in the refrigerator to keep the frosting fresh. They taste best if you eat them within three days. You can also freeze the unfrosted cookies for up to a month and frost them right before you are ready to serve.
