Ingredients

1 stick room temperature butter

1 cup of sugar

1 room temperature egg

1 cup of mashed bananas (3 large bananas)

Slightly less than 1 teaspoon of baking soda

2 cups of flour

1 pinch of salt

1/2 teaspoon of ground cinnamon

1/2 teaspoon of ground nutmeg

1/2 teaspoon of ground cloves

1- Preheat oven 350 F.

2- Beat the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy.

3- Add the egg and continue to beat until light and fluffy.

4- In a separate bowl, mix the mashed bananas and baking soda. (mix extremely well so you dont end up getting a bitter cookie) Let sit for 2-3 minutes. The baking soda reacts with the bananas which gives the cookies their rise.

7- Fold in the pecans into the batter.

8- spoon-drop dollops onto parchment paper lined baking sheet.
