Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8x8 inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal.
In a medium-sized saucepan, melt the unsweetened chocolate and butter over low heat, stirring frequently until smooth. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly.
Stir in the erythritol and vanilla extract, then beat in the eggs one at a time until fully incorporated.
In a separate bowl, combine almond flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Whisk until free of lumps.
Add the dry ingredients to the chocolate mixture and stir until just combined. Incorporate the banana extract and mix until smooth.
Fold in the chopped walnuts if using.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges are set and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan before lifting them out using the parchment paper overhang.
Cut into 12 squares and serve. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
