Ingredients
  

  • * 2 ripe bananas
  • * 1/2 cup natural almond butter 120g
  • * 2 scoops of chocolate protein powder approximately 60g
  • * 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder 30g
  • * 1/4 cup honey or maple syrup 60ml
  • * 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 5ml
  • * 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • * Pinch of salt
  • * Optional: A handful of dark chocolate chips

Method
 

  1. Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a mixing bowl, mash the bananas until smooth.
  3. Stir in almond butter, ensuring it blends well with the banana.
  4. Mix in the chocolate protein powder and unsweetened cocoa powder.
  5. Add honey or maple syrup and vanilla extract. Stir the mixture until it’s smooth.
  6. Sprinkle baking powder and a pinch of salt. Mix again.
  7. If you're feeling indulgent, fold in those dark chocolate chips.
  8. Pour the batter into a greased or lined 8x8 inch (20x20 cm) baking dish.
  9. Pop it in the oven and bake for about 20-25 minutes. The top should feel set but slightly soft in the middle.
  10. Once done, let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack.

Notes

1. Overripe bananas work best for a natural sweet taste.
2. Opt for high-quality protein powder for better flavor and nutrition.
3. Don’t overmix the batter, it can make the brownies dense.
4. For a moister brownie, consider baking for a slightly shorter duration.
5. Allow the brownies to fully cool before cutting. This helps them set and become fudgy.
