Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 large ripe bananas
- 0.5 cup coconut oil
- 0.5 cup maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 0.5 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.75 cup vegan chocolate chips
- 0.5 cup chopped walnuts (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease an 8x8 inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, mash the bananas using a fork or potato masher until smooth.
Add the melted coconut oil, maple syrup, and vanilla extract to the mashed bananas. Stir until well combined.
In a separate bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix the batter.
Fold in the vegan chocolate chips and chopped walnuts, if using, until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-28 minutes, or until the edges look firm and the center is set.
Remove from oven and allow the brownies to cool in the pan on a wire rack before slicing into squares.
Serve the brownies warm or at room temperature. Enjoy!
