Directions
- 1Brown the butter. Add the butter to a saucepan over medium-high heat. Allow to melt and slightly brown (~5-8 minutes).
- 2Once just golden brown, add the mashed bananas and sprinkle about 1-2 tbsp of the brown sugar on top. Mix and allow to simmer for 2-3 minutes, until the bananas are slightly caramelized in the brown butter.
- 3Remove from the heat and immediately pour into a large bowl. Set aside and allow to cool slightly.
- 4In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, oats, cinnamon, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
- 5Once the brown butter/caramelized mashed banana mixture is slightly cooled, add both sugars and whisk until well combined.
- 6Then whisk in the egg and vanilla until fully combined.
- 7Add the dry ingredients to the wet. Use a wooden spoon or spatula to mix until just combined.
- 8Then, fold in the chocolate chips/chunks and the caramelized banana slices (if using).
- 9Transfer and press the batter into the prepared skillet, making sure it is in an even layer.
- 10Bake at 350F for 28-32 minutes, or until golden brown and the middle is still slightly gooey.
- 11Allow to cool for at least 10 minutes before serving.
- 12Make the easy salted caramel (if using), by mixing together all of the ingredients in a medium bowl, until smooth.
- 13Serve the cookie skillet warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, flaky sea salt, and a drizzle of salted caramel, if desired.
