Step-by-Step Instructions
- Cream the softened unsalted butter with granulated and light brown sugar until pale and fluffy, about 3 minutes.
- Mix in the large egg, mashed ripe bananas, and vanilla extract until well combined.
- Whisk together the all-purpose flour, ground cinnamon, baking soda, baking powder, and salt in a separate bowl.
- Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet mixture using a spatula, folding gently to combine.
- Chill the dough in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Scoop mounds of dough onto the baking sheet.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, until the edges are golden and tops have a matte finish.
- Cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

Notes
Use heavily spotted or black bananas for sweet and flavorful cookies. Chill the dough to prevent spreading and achieve thick cookies.
