Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare an 8x8 inch baking pan by lining it with parchment paper or lightly greasing it with coconut oil.
In a large mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas using a fork or potato masher until smooth.
Add the coconut sugar, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract to the mashed bananas and mix until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet banana mixture, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Fold in the dairy-free chocolate chips and walnuts, if using.
Pour the brownie batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out mostly clean with a few moist crumbs.
Remove from the oven and allow the brownies to cool in the pan for at least 15 minutes.
Once cooled, lift the brownies out of the pan using the parchment paper, transfer them to a cutting board, and slice into squares.
Serve and enjoy your delicious dairy-free banana brownies as a delightful dessert or snack!
