2. In a bowl, mix the mashed bananas and baking
soda. Let set for 2 minutes. The baking soda will
react with the acid in the bananas which in turn
will give the cookies their lift and raise.

3. Mix the banana mixture into the butter mixture.
Mix together the flour, salt and spices and sift
into the butter and banana mixture and mix until
just combined.

4. Fold into the batter the nuts and/or chocolate
chips, if using. Drop in dollops onto parchment
paper lined baking sheet. Bake for 11-13 minutes
(I found it was better adding 5 more minutes to
the baking time) or until nicely golden brown.
Let cool on wire rack.
