  • I really do love to cook brownies for family and friends. Brownies are always such a welcome and delicious treat. Including bananas in this brownie recipe is indeed very interesting and the flavour combination is quite intriguing. I do love walnuts and would be very generous with adding them to the mix.

  • Interesting recipe ! My daughter would be interested given that it’s high in protein.
    I wonder if you’re missing a word and or maybe an ingredient in the list of ingredients. At pont 3 it says: “In a mixing bowl mash bananas and add cacao powder, protein and melted peanut butter”.
    Did you mean protein powder ?? how much ??

  • I would love to hear a review on these brownies. They look moreish and moist,but I absolutely cannot stand the taste of bananas. I wonder if the peanut butter, cocoa powder and chocolate are stronger flavours or if the banana sneaks on through. Maybe a shot of espresso or coffee powder added would help hide it more.
