50 grams (1/2 cup) cocoa powder

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a 7x7-inch brownie pan with parchment paper.

  • In a large bowl, mash the ripe bananas until smooth.

  • Add the peanut butter to the mashed bananas and stir until well combined.

  • Sift in the cocoa powder and mix until the batter is smooth.

  • Pour the batter into the prepared brownie pan and smooth out the top.

  • Bake for 22-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean (about 27 minutes).

  • Allow the brownies to cool completely before slicing into 9 pieces.

Notes

  • For a nut-free version, substitute peanut butter with sunflower seed butter or tahini.

  • Add-ins like chocolate chips or walnuts can enhance texture and flavor.

  • For a protein boost, incorporate a scoop of protein powder and adjust consistency with milk.

  • Store brownies at room temperature for up to 3 days, or refrigerate for up to 5 days. You can also freeze them for up to 3 months.
