Transcript

These are my banana bread cookie bars. They're packed full of melty chocolate chips, walnut pieces and topped with flaky salt. They're the perfect way to use up any ripe bananas you may have laying around. To make this recipe, you're gonna start by grabbing your ripe banana and adding it to a bowl. Mash your banana until it is smooth, then add in your melted butter and your sugar. Whisk that until it's incorporated, then add in your egg and vanilla extract. Once all your wet ingredients are combined, add in your dry ingredients and mix until incorporated. Then add in your chocolate chips and your walnuts, which are optional, then transfer your batter to a lined baking dish. Place these in the oven to bake, and once they have fully cooked and slightly cooled, they are ready to be sliced and enjoyed.
