Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. 

In a medium mixing bowl, stir together the oats, whole wheat flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt until combined. Set aside.

In a large mixing bowl mash the banana then add the butter, and mash together. Then add the egg, brown sugar, maple syrup, and vanilla extract and beat on medium high with a mixer until very well combined, at least 3 minutes, stopping to scrape down the bowl as needed. 

Then add the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Mix on a low speed until the flour dissolves. If you are mixing in chocolate chips, or in my case valentines day sprinkles! Add up to 3/4 cup of the mix in and fold in gently with a rubber spatula.

Cover the bowl and place in the fridge for 30 minutes.

After 30 minutes remove from fridge and preheat the oven to 350 degrees.

With a large cookie scoop, scoop the dough onto the prepared baking sheet. My cookie scoop yielded almost 2 tablespoons or so per scoop. This yields about 10-12 cookies.

With a back of a spoon gently press each ball dough to flatten them a bit. They will spread out as they bake.

Place in the oven for about 15 minutes. Remove and let them cool before handling them.
