Steps

  1. Line a small toaster-oven tray with parchment paper.
  2. Mash the banana in a bowl, then mix in the brown sugar, soy milk, and oil.
  3. Stir in the oats, baking powder, and salt until evenly combined. Let the mixture stand for 3 minutes to thicken.
  4. Shape into one thick, round cookie on the tray and gently flatten it.
  5. Bake in the toaster oven until the edges look set and lightly golden and the center is no longer wet, about 12–16 minutes. Let it cool on the tray for 5 minutes before eating.

Tips for Toaster-Oven Banana Oat Cookie

  • Use a very ripe banana for a sweeter cookie and a mixture that holds together well.
  • A small oven-safe tray and parchment help prevent the bottom from browning too quickly.
  • For a chewier middle, avoid flattening the cookie too thin.

Storage

Frequently asked questions

How do I know when the cookie is done?

The edges should look set and lightly golden, while the center should look moist but not wet. It firms as it cools.

Can I make the dough ahead?

You can mix it shortly ahead and refrigerate it covered, but bake it the same day for the best texture.

Why did my cookie spread or crumble?

Banana size and ripeness affect the dough. If it seems loose, let it stand a few extra minutes so the oats can absorb moisture.
