Gluten free, vegan, and naturally sweetened! These healthy, easy brownies have a soft texture and lovely banana flavor. Add additional chocolate or nuts to the mix for extra texture!

Ingredients

  • Wet

  • 3-4 ripe bananas (smushed) *see note

  • 45g (3 tbsp) butter (or coconut oil)

  • 65g (1/4c) peanut butter (I’ve been enjoying powdered pb)

  • 1 tbsp sugar (Maple Syrup, Agave – options!)

  • Dry

  • 96g (3/4c) Flour (I used Self-Rising GF) *see note

  • 30g (1/4c) GF Oats

  • Delicious

  • 1 tbsp Cacao powder (or cocoa!)

  • Chocolate Chips (up to 90g, 1/2c, I used a small Raw Halo bar, 70g)

Directions

  • Preheat oven to 160c Fan (350F). Prep 8×8 pan
  • Mash WET ingredients together, fold in DRY.
  • Put 1/2 of batter into prepared pan, add DELICIOUS ingredients to the remaining 1/2 batter – and then add that on top.
  • Bake for 30-40 minutes, I did 30 and while they were a bit under, I like the squishier texture. They’re vegan anyway!

Notes

  • If using regular flour, you can make your own self-rising by adding 1.5 tsp baking powder & 1/4 tsp salt for every cup of regular flour!
  • You can quick-ripen your bananas by putting them in the oven (peel-on) for 15 minutes at low heat until peel is black.
The ingredients I used! Happy baking!
