Ingredients

  • 2 overripe large peeled bananas, each banana should weigh about 115 grams when peeled
  • 3/4 cup creamy unsweetened almond butter
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/2 cup granulated white sugar
  • 1/4 cup + 1 tbsp unsweetened dutch process cocoa powder
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 cup chopped dark chocolate

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Line an 8 x 8 inch square nonstick metal baking pan with parchment paper.
  • Add all ingredients except chopped chocolate to blender. Blend until evenly mixed.
  • Add batter to prepared pan. Sprinkle chopped chocolate evenly across pan.
  • Put brownies in oven and bake about 20-25 minutes. For extra fudgy brownies, I like baking around 20-22 minutes, where the top of brownies are set but middle is not yet set and still fudgy. When toothpick inserted, there should be some crumbs still clinging.
  • Let brownies cool before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • The ingredients can be mixed in a food processor or blender. You can also mix by hand, but make sure to thoroughly mash the bananas before mixing them into the batter.
  • If you are using frozen bananas, be sure to drain off the excess liquid, otherwise your batter will have too much moisture.
  • You can reduce the sugar amount if you prefer something less sweet.
  • The brownies can also be baked in a 9 x 9 baking pan but they will be thinner and will require less baking time.
