These soft and chewy Banana Hazelnut Cookies are absolutely delight to the sweet tooth. It’s easy to bake and perfect for any occasion.
Ripe bananas mashed with honey and combined with hazelnut meal and baked into cookies. I simply love the combination. 🙂
I love the aroma of the fresh baked cookies and if I get a chance to bite a cookie immediately out of the oven its mind blowing.
Ingredients for Banana Hazelnut Cookies
I had some bananas that were ripe and I wanted to see the outcome of any dessert with hazelnut meal.
So I combined the both and created this dessert. These cookies are very easy to bake and I used the ingredients that I had at home.
Also the cookies vanished in couple of days and there was a demand for more. 🙂 I was super excited to bake another batch of these.
These cookies are quite special to me because this recipe is approved by my daughter who is quite a picky eater.
It’s usually difficult to get any recipe approved by her but she loved Banana Hazelnut Cookies and finished the whole batch.
In fact she had her meals with these cookies and I was happy because these are healthy and nutritious cookies.
The most happy and funny moment was when daddy bear and baby bear were fighting for the last cookie. I could not stop laughing that my husband had become a child at that time. 🙂
My family truly appreciated the cookies and I would say that this recipe is a Must Try!

I wonder if frozen bananas will work?

Hi Karen! I have not tested this recipe with frozen banana. I would recommend using fresh banana to achieve the correct texture and taste. Hope this helps.
