Tips for preparation
The preparation of these banana brownies isa real child's playand even absolute baking beginners will succeed perfectly. But mishaps happen and so that the recipe always tastes delicious, I have a few preparation tips for you.
- Always use very ripe bananas - the riper they are, the better.
- Mash the bananas until you get a smooth mixture with no lumps. Alternatively, you could do this in the blender.
- Always use smooth peanut butter with no added sugar.
- Do not bake the brownies for too long, otherwise they will become too dry and inedible.
Delicious variations of banana brownies
For the basic banana brownies recipe you only need 3 ingredients. But that doesn't mean you can't add extras of your choice. Here are a few variations that would also taste quite good.
- If you have a peanut or tree nut allergy, replace the peanut butter with sunflower butter or tahini.
- If you like it even more chocolaty, you can add some chopped chocolate to the dough.
- Chopped nuts also add a crunchy touch.
- To make protein brownies, replace half of the cocoa powder with protein powder and add 1-2 tablespoons of milk to the batter.
- With spring just around the corner, you could spice up the brownies with strawberries.
