1/2 cup flaked sweetened coconut
1/2 cup golden raisins
1/2 cup chopped walnuts
1 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
1/8 tsp ground nutmeg
Dash of ground ginger
Preheat oven to 350 F.
Place first 4 ingredients in a large bowl; beat with a mixer at medium speed until blended.
Lightly spoon flour into dry measuring cups; level with a knife.
Combine flour and remaining ingredients, stirring with a whisk.
Stir flour mixture into banana mixture.
Drop dough by 2 tablespoonfuls onto parchment paper-lined baking sheets.
