This banana brownies recipe is the one you go to when you have a sweet tooth or want to make your kids a yummy yet sugar-free treat. The bananas add creaminess and some sweetness to the cocoa as a substitute to dairy & sugar.
You can add some dark chocolate chips that will melt in the oven and make it even more gooey.
Ingredients
- 1 cup whole wheat flour - دقيق القمح الكامل
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips (dark chocolate - OPTIONAL) - قطع شوكولاتة صغيرة

I’m about to try to make this recipe. I was reading through the steps and noticed in step 2 it says to mix all dry ingredients including baking powder and salt. However, in the ingredients it does not mention how much of each. I’m assuming about 1tsp of baking powder and 1/4tsp of salt. Can you confirm. Thanks 🙂
Hi Nour! So excited you will try our recipe! Sorry that I missed these measures!
YES you are right, its 1 teaspoon baking powder (its usually one teaspoon baking powder to one cup flour) – as for salt its just a big pinch of salt – 1/4 teaspoon sounds right too.
Please let us know how it turns out! Also, do use the choc chips – its such a nice melting surprise in the middle 🙂
Can these be frozen?
YES! and reheated when needed!
