Method

Step-by-Step Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C). Line a 6-inch brownie pan with parchment paper and lightly grease it.
Mash the very ripe bananas in a large bowl until smooth, with no lumps.
Add the creamy peanut butter and cocoa powder to the mashed bananas. Stir until you have a thick, cohesive batter.
Optional: Fold in dairy-free dark chocolate chips into the brownie batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the surface. Optionally, top with more chocolate chips.
Bake for 25-30 minutes, checking for doneness at 25 minutes with a toothpick.
Remove from oven and cool on a rack for 20 minutes before slicing into squares.
