Faq

  • Why did my cookies turn out dry?

    If your cookies are too dry, make sure your bananas are overripe for extra moisture, and avoid overbaking.

  • Can I use frozen berries instead of fresh ones?

    Absolutely! Just be sure to thaw and drain them first to remove excess moisture.

  • What's the best way to store these cookies?

    Store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days or refrigerate for a week of freshness.

  • How can I make the cookies fluffier?

    Add half a teaspoon of baking soda along with the baking powder to give the cookies a lighter texture.

  • Can I substitute the coconut oil with another oil?

    Yes, melted butter or vegetable oil can be used instead, although coconut oil imparts a unique flavor.

  • How can I customize the cookie flavor?

    Experiment by mixing in your favorite nuts or a dash of cinnamon for a warm, spiced flavor profile. 🥜
