Banana Coconut Walnut Cookies- GF EF

I woke up this morning to 5 brown bananas staring at me and knew I had to act. One week my kids are obsessed with bananas, and the next week I couldn’t bribe them to eat them if I wanted to. I have been working on this recipe for quite some time but it doesn’t always work out that I have 5 brown bananas on hand 😅 🙃

These taste like the best banana bread you’ve ever had! 🍌 🍌 🍌
