Hi Bold Bakers!
I know how much you guys love quick and easy recipes! With this in mind I’ve created an insanely simple, satisfying, and surprisingly healthy 3 Ingredient Chocolate and Banana Cookie recipe, which is gluten free and egg free too. I also know how important bold flavors, high-quality ingredients and over-the-top results are to you and your family. This recipe delivers on that promise!
My 3 Ingredient Chocolate Banana Cookies are a crowd pleaser. From chocoholics, to those watching their waist, everyone will be amazed by the fudgy texture and deep chocolate flavor that is achieved by combining 3 basic and healthy ingredients. It is easy to make these 3 Ingredient Chocolate Banana Cookies. I simply mash 3 bananas in a bowl, mix in smooth peanut butter and good quality cocoa powder. I just make it into a batter, then spoon dollops of the chocolate banana mixture onto a cookie sheet, and straight into the oven. It could not be easier!
After just 15 minutes in the oven my 3 Ingredient Chocolate Banana Cookies bake up into rich little bites of chocolate perfection. With no added sugar, flour or egg, it is hard to believe how yummy these babies are. Soft and chewy on the inside, crisp on the outside and just sweet enough, I cannot really imagine such a simple recipe getting any better. And the best part, these 3 Ingredient Cookie wonders are so good for you they can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch or dinner!

These were horrible, used my last but of pb for nothing
This cookies are great source of carbs/fat. They taste like brownies. If you use good quality ingredients, they would turn out good. Thanks fr this recipe.
Hi Gemma,
If I only have cacao powder as opposed to cocoa, do I use the same amount or do I need to modify in some way? I know cacao is usually more bitter and intense than cocoa…
Thank you!
Hi Gemma, the banana cookies came our soft n bitter I think the cocoa pwdr should be reduced I am using regular cocoa and it came out quite bitter.But next time I will reduce it for sure.
Thanks

I made the batter and it was super bitter so I added lots of sugar. Idk if i can trust these recipes anymore, because the three ingredient coconut ones were so bad.
We love 3 Ingredient cookies, but this one was awful. Really bitter. Had to throw them out.
Delicious! Made this recipe twice now. First time the cookies were a bit bitter. Tonight I added approximately 1/3 cup of cocoa powder instead of 1/2 cup and I added almost 1/4 cup dark chocolate chips. I love thembhhis way!
I haven’t tried this recepie yet but when I do I know it’s gonna turn out great! Gemma you have the best easy to follow recepies and they’re always so delicious!
Sadly these were awful, a waste of ingredients. Bitter and too soft to set properly
It’s been my experience that when using a powder cocoa in a recipe weather it is cookies, cakes or hot chocolate,,most recipes would add a pinch of salt to calm the bitterness in baking cocoa powder. I have used a pinch of salt and found the bitterness gone… just a thought…
