Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 115 grams Unsalted butter
- 150 grams Light brown sugar
- 50 grams Granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 1 large Egg
- 2 medium Ripe bananas
- 190 grams All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 100 grams Chocolate chips
- 75 grams Chopped walnuts
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and line a 9x9-inch (23x23 cm) baking pan with parchment paper, leaving a slight overhang for easy removal.
In a medium-sized saucepan, melt the butter over low heat, then set it aside to cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the melted butter, light brown sugar, and granulated sugar until smooth and creamy.
Add the vanilla extract and the egg to the mixture, and whisk until fully incorporated.
In a separate bowl, mash the ripe bananas until smooth, then stir them into the wet mixture.
In another bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring just until combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Fold in the chocolate chips and chopped walnuts gently until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Bake the banana blondies in the preheated oven for 22-25 minutes, or until the top is lightly golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
Remove the pan from the oven and let the blondies cool in the pan for at least 15 minutes. Then, use the parchment paper overhang to lift them out onto a cutting board.
Cut into 12 squares or your desired serving size. Serve warm for extra gooeyness or at room temperature. Enjoy!
