3-Ingredient Banana Brownies | Ready in 30 Min

Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven to 180°C and get your pan ready. The smell of the warming cocoa will start to fill the room almost immediately, which is honestly the best part of the whole process.
2. Peel the bananas and place them in a wide bowl. Mash them with a fork until they are a liquid like consistency with very few lumps.
3. Add the 125g of creamy peanut butter to the mashed fruit. Note: This creates the base emulsion.
4. Gradually add the 45g of cocoa powder. Use a whisk to stir until the batter is dark and velvety.
5. If using salt or chocolate chips, stir them in gently now.
6. Pour the mixture into your lined baking tin and smooth the top with a spatula.
7. Place in the center of the oven for 10 minutes until the edges look matte.
8. Continue baking for another 10 minutes. Note: The center should still have a slight jiggle.
9. You should smell a deep, toasted chocolate aroma, not a burnt fruit scent.
10. Remove from the oven and let it sit in the pan for at least 20 minutes.
11. Lift the parchment sling and cut into 9 even squares using a sharp, warm knife.
