Melt the 1/2 cup salted butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Stir continuously until it is bubbling and browned, which will take about 5-8 minutes.

Remove the browned butter from the heat and let it cool for 20 minutes. This is a crucial passive time for the flavor development.

Add the cooled browned butter, 1/3 cup maple syrup, and 1 medium ripe banana (mashed well) to a large bowl. Whisk until the mixture is smooth.

Whisk in the 1 large egg and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract until they are fully combined with the wet mixture.

Fold in the 1 3/4 cups almond flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Stir for approximately 1 minute until all ingredients are fully combined and the almond flour begins to absorb the liquid. The resulting dough should have a wet consistency, similar to a banana bread batter.

Transfer the dough to the fridge to allow it to firm up for 15 minutes. It is critical not to skip this chill time. While the dough chills, preheat your oven.

Preheat your oven to 375°F and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.

Fold the heaping 2/3 cup chocolate chips into the chilled dough until they are just combined.

Scoop 12 cookies onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving enough space between them.

Bake the cookies for 9-12 minutes, or until their outsides are golden and their centers are still soft.

Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 15 minutes before attempting to transfer them to a wire rack. They will be too soft to handle before this cooling period.

Sprinkle with sea salt to top before serving. Enjoy your delicious Brown Butter Banana Bread Cookies!
