Martha Stewart’s Chocolate Banana Cookies with Gluten-Free Option

Apr 7, 2021

Jump to Recipe

Bananas, oatmeal, and chocolate are a delicious combination in Martha Stewart’s Chocolate Banana Cookies. The recipe includes a gluten free version too!

Martha Stewart's Chocolate Banana Cookies

This week I am sharing another cookie recipe for my Year of Martha Stewart Cooking Challenge. I think this is the fourth cookie recipe that I have shared for my challenge.

I guess that means that I really love Martha Stewart cookie recipes. They are some of the best cookie recipes that I have tried. They almost always turn out amazing.

The recipe I am sharing today is actually one that I changed up. I took Martha Stewart’s Banana Chocolate Chip Cookie from Martha Stewart’s Cookies cookbooks and made them better with more chocolate.

More chocolate is always a good thing!

I am also sharing how I made them gluten free. The gluten free version turn out delicious too!

Martha Stewart Cookies Cookbook

The recipe that I adapted, Chocolate Banana Cookies, comes from Martha Stewart’s Cookies Cookbook that was published in 2008.

I bought this cookbook in 2008 shortly after it was published. It quickly became one of my most used Martha Stewart cookbooks.

One of the things I love about this cookbook is how it is set up. It is divided into sections for the different type of cookies.

It has a section for soft and chewy cookies, one for crispy and crunchy, one for chunky and nutty, and more. You can pick the recipe based on the type of cookie that you love.

I love the basic recipes in this book. I enjoy adapting the recipes to make them gluten-free or to change them up slightly like I did the recipe today.
