Ingredients
3 large Ripe Banana (note 1)
4 tablespoons Unsweetened Cocoa Powder
(note 2)
½ cup Peanut Butter (Unsalted) (note 3)
Optional - for a boost of sweeteness
½ cup Vegan Dark Chocolate Chips (note 4)
Instructions
1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Line a 6-
inch brownie pan with parchment paper and
grease it with cooking oil. Set aside.
2. In a large mixing bowl, mash the banana into a
smooth puree,
3. Stir in peanut butter and cocoa powder with a
silicone spatula until it looks like a brownie
batter. It's fine if you see bits and pieces of
bananas as long as the batter is not dry. If too
dry, it means you used smaller bananas or
your nut butter is dry and not oily. Add more
mashed banana to fix the batter or a splash of
almond milk.
4. Stir in chocolate chips until if used.
5. Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish
and sprinkle extra chocolate chips on top if
you like.
6. Bake the brownies for 25-30 minutes in the
oven at 350°F (180°C) until a toothpick
inserted in the center comes out with only a
little crumb on it.
7. Cool down on a cooling rack for 20 minutes
before serving.

Notes
Note 1: you need 1 1/2 cup mashed bananas. The darker the bananas, the sweeter the brownies. If your
bananas are yellow, not ripe, add the chocolate chips for a boost of sweetness.

Note 2: You can use sweetened cocoa powder to boost the sweetness of the brownies if you are using
yellow bananas.

Note 3: Almond butter or sunflower seed butter works as well.

Note 4: or chopped walnuts.

Storage: Store the brownies in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days.
