Ingredients

For the Batter

2 ripe bananas the riper, the sweeter

1 cup brown sugar for deep caramel flavor
1/2 cup granulated sugar adjust to taste if desired
2 large eggs or flax eggs for a vegan version
1 teaspoon vanilla extract or almond extract for variation

For the Dry Ingredients

1 cup all-purpose flour or gluten-free flour blend
1/2 cup cocoa powder for rich chocolate flavor
1/2 teaspoon baking soda ensure it's fresh

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Mash the ripe bananas in a bowl until smooth.
Mix in the melted butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar with the mashed bananas until combined.
Add the eggs and vanilla extract, and stir again.
In another bowl, combine flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring gently until just combined.

Bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
Let cool before slicing into squares.

Notes

For your Banana Bread Brownies, always use very ripe bananas for the best flavor and sweetness. Avoid overmixing once the dry and wet ingredients combine for a tender texture. Check brownies a few minutes before the baking time to prevent overcooking.
