Description

These Banana Bread Brownies combine the best of both worlds—soft, moist banana bread flavor with the rich, indulgent texture of brownies. The result is a delightful treat that’s perfect for dessert or a snack!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup white sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 cup mashed ripe banana

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×9 inch baking pan.
  • In a large bowl, stir melted butter and sugar together. Beat in the eggs and vanilla extract.
  • Combine flour, salt, and baking powder; stir into the butter mixture until smooth. Fold in the mashed banana.
  • Spread the batter evenly into the prepared pan.
  • Bake for 25 minutes in the preheated oven, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Notes

  • If you prefer a slightly sweeter treat, you can add chocolate chips or nuts to the batter before baking.
  • For an extra burst of banana flavor, top the brownies with thin slices of banana before baking.
  • These brownies are great for using up overripe bananas!
