Step-by-Step Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine your melted butter or vegetable oil, packed light brown sugar, and the overripe banana. Blend until creamy and smooth.
- Mix in the egg yolk and vanilla extract into the banana mixture until completely smooth.
- Gradually sift in the all-purpose flour, baking soda, ground cinnamon, and salt. Gently fold until no traces of flour remain.
- Fold in the chocolate chips gently until evenly distributed. Let the dough rest for about 15 minutes.
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Drop generous spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Bake for 10-11 minutes, until the edges are set and the centers look slightly doughy.
- Remove from the oven and allow to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
