Ingredients
  

Main ingredients

  • 2 pieces ripe bananas, mashed Choose bananas that are spotty brown for sweetness.
  • 1/2 cup melted butter Adds richness and helps achieve a fudgy texture.
  • 1 cup brown sugar Enhances the banana flavor; coconut sugar can be substituted.
  • 1 large egg Provides binding and structure.
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract Improves the dessert flavor.
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour Helps with structure.
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda Essential for lifting the batter.
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt Balances flavors.
  • 1/3 cup cocoa powder Unsweetened for richness.
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips Adds melty chocolatey goodness.
  • 1/2 cup brown butter frosting Drizzled on top for indulgence.

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare your brownie pan by spraying it with cooking spray or lining it with parchment paper.
  • In a large mixing bowl, mash your bananas until smooth but not completely devoid of character. Stir in the melted butter.
  • Add the brown sugar, egg, and vanilla extract to the banana mixture and stir until smooth and glossy.
  • In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, and cocoa powder.
  • Gradually combine the dry ingredients with the banana mixture, mixing gently to avoid overmixing.
  • Fold in the chocolate chips.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared brownie pan and spread it evenly.

Baking

  • Bake for 20-25 minutes. Check for doneness with a toothpick; it should come out slightly sticky but not wet.
  • Let the brownies cool completely in the pan before drizzling with brown butter frosting.
  • Slice into squares and serve.

Notes

For best results, let the brownies cool fully to enhance texture. Feel free to experiment with add-ins like walnuts, toffee bits, or peanut butter.
