List of Ingredients
1 cup flour
1/2 cup flaked coconut
1/2 cup rolled oats
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
3/4 cup firmly packed brown sugar
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
1 ripe banana, mashed
1 egg, room temperature
1/2 cup dried apricots, chopped
1/2 cup chopped walnutsRecipe
Preheat an oven to 325ºF. Lightly grease 1 or 2 baking sheets. In a bowl, stir together the flour, coconut, oats, baking soda, salt and cinnamon. In a large bowl, cream the brown sugar and butter with a wooden spoon until fluffy. Add the banana and egg and beat with a fork until blended. Stir in the flour mixture, about 1/2 cup at a time, then stir in the apricots and the walnuts.
Spoon the dough by heaping tablespoonfuls onto the prepared baking sheet(s), spacing the cookies about 2 inches apart. Bake until golden brown, 12 to 15 minutes, switching pan positions halfway through baking if 2 pans were used. Remove from the oven and cool on the baking sheet(s) on a rack for about 5 minutes. Transfer the cookies to the rack to cool completely. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. Makes about 18 cookies; serves 6.
