Add unsalted butter and brown sugar to a large glass bowl. Beat with an electric hand mixer for about 2 minutes until well combined and creamy. Scrape down the sides of the bowl with a spatula.
Add sliced ripe banana to the creamed butter and sugar. Beat again for 2 minutes to mash the banana completely and integrate it into a smooth, creamy texture.
Add rolled oats and plain flour directly into the bowl. Sprinkle in baking soda, cinnamon powder, salt, and vanilla extract. Mix thoroughly using a spatula until a uniform, moist cookie dough forms.
Add raisins and chocolate chips to the dough. Mix well to distribute the fruit and chocolate evenly. Lightly grease or moisten your hands. Scoop out small, ball-sized portions of dough and roll them smooth between your palms. Arrange the dough balls on a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Gently press down on each dough ball to flatten slightly into neat cookie discs.
Preheat your oven to 190°C (375°F). Place the tray in the preheated oven and bake for 10 minutes. Remove the tray from the oven and allow the cookies to cool completely on the tray.
