Healthy Chocolate Chip Banana Bread Cookies with dark chocolate chips and a glass of milk.

These soft Chocolate Chip Banana Bread Cookies pack all the cozy flavor of freshly baked banana bread into one perfectly bite-sized cookie. Naturally sweetened with ripe bananas and applesauce, each cookie is gently spiced and dotted with rich dark chocolate chips. These banana cookies are a delicious and healthy way to use up overripe bananas. So forget the loaf pan and grab your baking sheets!



FAQs About Chocolate Chip Banana Bread Cookies

Can banana bread cookies be made gluten-free?

Although this recipe is not gluten-free, it can easily be modified to be made without gluten. Simply swap out the all-purpose and whole wheat flours for gluten-free flour alternatives. My favorite gluten-free flour for baking is Bob's Red Mill Gluten-Free 1-to-1 Baking Flour. I would also recommend Bob's Red Mill Almond Flour for a nut-based gluten-free flour.


Can you make this cookie recipe without chocolate chips?

Of course! These banana bread cookies taste great even without chocolate chips in them. In place of the chocolate chips, feel free to substitute them for chopped pecans or walnuts. If you are missing the sweetness, add in some unsweetened dried cranberries for a pop of color and flavor.
