Banana oatmeal chocolate cookie muffins, cookins?

I had some leftover bananas and wanted to try something besides our usual standby recipe when we have leftover bananas- banana bread. I envisioned an oatmeal style cookie, but with a more cake like texture, cookie meets muffin feeling.

Here's what I came up with.

Banana oatmeal chocolate cookies

4 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 cup sugar
1 cup brown sugar
2 ripe banana
2 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla

2 cup flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon pumpkin or apple pie spice
1/4 teaspoon salt

3 cups oatmeal (old-fashioned or quick, not instant)
1 cup shredded coconut
½ cup dark chocolate chunks or chips

Preheat oven to 350F. Combine all wet ingredients in a mixer, then add dry ingredients and mix until combined. Dough will be slightly wet, like muffin batter.

Drop large spoonfuls on a Silpat lined baking sheet and bake for 8-10 minutes or until cookies are golden brown and feel like a sponge when lightly pressed.

They are delicious, not too sweet and with a fantastic texture. I imagine these will be delicious for breakfast too.
