Process

Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease or line a baking pan with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, mash the banana until smooth using a fork.
  3. Mix the maple syrup and vanilla extract with the mashed banana.
  4. Whisk together the almond flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and a pinch of salt in another large mixing bowl.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until well combined. Ensure there are no lumps.
  6. Whisk one egg in a medium bowl and add it to the mixture. Mix well until combined.
  7. Fold in dark chocolate chips or chunks and mix until combined.
  8. Pour the brownie batter into the prepared pan and spread it evenly. I used a 4×6 inch baking dish for a small batch of 6 brownies.
  9. Bake in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes clean.
  10. Once done, remove the brownies from the oven and let them cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  11. Cut into six squares and enjoy your healthy chocolate brownies!

Notes

Substitutions/Variations I have two types of almond flour in my pantry – super fine almond flour from whole almonds and blanched super fine almond flour. I only tried the blanched one to make these brownies because it’s lighter and better for cookies, brownies, pastries, etc. But almond flour from whole almonds should work as well. As a sweetener, I used maple syrup. But you can also use agave or honey for a slightly different flavor. You can also blend soaked dates for a natural sweetener with added fiber. For a unique taste and flavor enhancement, experiment with cinnamon, nutmeg, or cardamom. For fruit infusion, you can incorporate dried cranberries, raisins, or chopped dried apricots for bursts of sweetness. Incorporate vanilla or chocolate protein powder for an extra protein punch. Walnuts, pecans, or almonds can add a crunchy texture. Use ripe bananas for enhanced sweetness and easier mashing. If not using parchment paper, ensure proper greasing of the baking pan to prevent sticking. Get creative with toppings like chopped nuts, chocolate chips, or a dusting of coconut sugar. Incorporate flaxseed meal, chia seeds, or protein powder for added nutrients without compromising taste. Store brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for a few days or in the refrigerator for a longer shelf life. Quick Tip: These chocolate banana brownies go great with a drizzle of honey, a scoop of ice cream for indulgence, or a cup of fresh fruit. They are also a great addition to your cup of coffee.
