1 1/2 cup flour

1 cup sugar

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon nutmeg

3/4 teaspoon cinnamon

1 teaspoon vanilla

3/4 cup shortening

1 well beaten egg

1 cup (2-3) ripe bananas, well mashed

1 3/4 cups quick cooking rolled oats

1 package Chocolate Chips (large or small, depending on how big a

chocoholic you are.)

 

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

 

1)Cream the egg, sugar and shortening and vanilla and bananas, until

light and fluffy.

2)Stir in the baking soda, salt, nutmeg, and cinnamon until well

blended.

3)Next add the flour, followed by the oats and chocolate chips.

4)Drop by spoonfuls onto lightly greased (spray coatings work well)

cookie sheet. These can be either small teaspoon size, or large

serving spoon size. (My mother-in-law raised 3 boys, she always made

them super sized)Just watch your cooking time on the first batch to

determine the exact time needed.

5)Normal baking time is 10 minutes depending on the size.

 

They should be moist and chewy. ENJOY !
