Easy Chocolate Banana Brownie Recipe

Wow, what a delicious and easy chocolate banana brownie recipe.

What’s great about these brownies is they are moist, chocolatey, filled with lots of banana, and not too sweet. We used dark chocolate and a healthy pinch of salt to give them a nice balance and a deeper complexity of flavor.

Directions:

Preheat your oven to 350F,  and grease a 9×9 inch pan with butter.

Add the dry ingredients, flour, salt, and baking powder to a mixing bowl, and stir until the ingredients are thoroughly combined.

Melt the butter (about 30 seconds in the microwave), and let it cool. Add the butter, eggs, brown sugar, and vanilla to a second mixing bowl.

The easiest way to melt chocolate is to put it in a microwave safe bowl, and heat on high for 20 seconds. Stir and heat for another 10 seconds. Repeat until it is smooth. Add the melted chocolate, and 1 1/2 cups of bananas.

You can the dry ingredients all at once. Stir with a fork until just combined. Break up any large chunks of banana.

Bake for 25 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean.

Yum!

So here are the brownies right out of the oven.

And here’s the final product, so delicious and moist. Btw, I think there are only three left at the moment.

So please, go cook with your kids and have fun.
