These Flourless Banana Brownies are a decadent and healthier alternative to traditional brownies, made without any flour and sweetened naturally with ripe bananas and optional coconut sugar. Rich with cacao and creamy almond butter, they’re moist, fudgy, and perfect for satisfying your chocolate cravings while keeping things gluten-free and nutritious.

Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups mashed ripe bananas
  • 1/2 cup smooth almond butter
  • 2 eggs, room temperature
  • 1/2 cup cacao powder
  • 2–3 tablespoons coconut sugar (optional)
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • A pinch of sea salt (optional)

Chocolate Chips

  • 1 cup chocolate chips, divided

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure it’s ready once your batter is prepared.
  2. Mash Bananas: In a large mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas thoroughly with a fork or use a hand mixer for a smoother consistency.
  3. Combine Wet Ingredients: Add the smooth almond butter and room temperature eggs to the mashed bananas. Mix well until the mixture is smooth and fully combined.
  4. Add Dry Ingredients: Stir in cacao powder, coconut sugar (if using), baking soda, and a pinch of sea salt into the wet mixture. Mix until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.
  5. Fold in Chocolate Chips: Gently fold 2/3 cup of the chocolate chips into the brownie batter, distributing them evenly without overmixing.
  6. Prepare Baking Pan: Line an 8×8 inch baking pan with parchment paper and pour the batter into the pan, spreading it evenly.
  7. Add Toppings: Sprinkle the remaining 1/3 cup chocolate chips evenly over the top of the batter. Optionally, swirl a few spoonfuls of almond butter on top for added richness.
  8. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 22-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out with a few moist crumbs, indicating preferred fudgy doneness.
  9. Cool and Serve: Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares to prevent crumbling. Enjoy your flourless banana brownies as a healthy treat!
