- 2 ripe bananas

- 3/4 cup flour
- 1/4 cup cocoa powder
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C). Lightly spray a 9"×9" cake pan and line with parchment paper.
- In a bowl, use a fork to mash the bananas. Add the sugar, butter, and vanilla extract, and whisk until combined.
- Add the flour, salt, and cocoa powder, and whisk until fully incorporated.
- Pour batter into prepared baking dish.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, until center no longer jiggles when pan is shaken.
- Allow brownies to cool completely before cutting. Enjoy!
Notes
- Hot melted butter creates those crackly tops!
- Whisk your hot melted butter and sugar really well.
- Try NOT over bake them and keep your eye on them.
- Bake the brownies in the middle of your oven to prevent the top or bottom from getting too hot.
- You will need to pour the batter into prepared pan as soon as it is done mixing. You do not want to set this aside for later as the brownie batter will become too thick and hard.
- Because these brownies are so fudgy, when a toothpick is inserted, it should not come out clean. The brownies are done when the surface has developed the crackly thin layer and the middle is no longer jiggly.
- Make sure you let the brownies cool and set for 30 minutes before slicing.
- The riper the banana, the sweeter! So adjust the sugar as per your taste!
