Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 F. Prepare the cookies: Combine bananas, sugar, oil, vanilla and egg in mixing bowl. Beat until combined.
Add in flour, salt, baking soda, cinnamon and nutmeg. Mix on low until smooth. Finally pour in oats and chips. Stir until evenly incorporated.

Step 2

On a nonstick cookie sheet, or a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper, drop large tablespoons of batter, about 2 inches apart. Bake for 10-12 minutes until edges are golden and centers are set. Transfer cookies to a wire rack to cool.
