These banana cookies made with coconut oil are soft and mildly sweet with a subtle coconut flavor. My son likes them with raspberry jam on top.

Yield 40

Number Of Ingredients 15

Ingredients

4 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup mashed ripe banana
½ cup sour cream
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup margarine
1 cup white sugar
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 cup chopped walnuts
½ cup unsalted butter
1 cup brown sugar
¼ cup milk, or more as needed
2 ½ cups powdered sugar, or to taste

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a cookie sheet.
Combine flour, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl. Stir mashed banana, sour cream, and vanilla together in another bowl.
Cream margarine and sugar in a large bowl with an electric mixer. Beat in eggs. Mix in banana-sour cream mixture until incorporated. Add dry ingredients until well combined. Stir in nuts.
Drop small spoonfuls of batter onto the prepared cookie sheet; cookies do not expand much in the oven.
Bake in the preheated oven, checking occasionally, until bottoms are light golden brown and cookies are set but still a tad soft, 10 to 12 minutes. Remove cookies to a rack to cool.
While the cookies are cooling, prepare frosting: Melt butter in a saucepan over medium-low heat. Stir in brown sugar and reduce heat to low. Stir and bring to a boil. Boil, stirring constantly, for 2 minutes. Remove from heat.
Stir in 1/4 cup milk and bring to a boil again. Remove from heat and let cool, 10 to 15 minutes.
Gradually stir in powdered sugar until frosting is desired consistency. If frosting hardens while working, stir in a little bit of milk.
Spread frosting on cooled cookies.
