Ingredients
  

For the Brownies
  • 3 medium Ripe Bananas Opt for super ripe bananas for maximum sweetness and moisture.
  • 1 cup Granulated Sugar Adds a touch of sweetness; consider reducing slightly for less sugary brownies.
  • 1/2 cup Brown Sugar Essential for chewiness; pack it firmly into the measuring cup.
  • 1/2 cup Unsalted Butter Provides richness; melt it down.
  • 2 large Large Eggs Vital for binding and fudgy texture.
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract Enhances all the flavors.
  • 1 cup All-Purpose Flour Gives structure; measure accurately.
  • 1/2 cup Unsweetened Cocoa Powder Provides that luscious chocolate flavor.
  • 1 teaspoon Baking Soda Key leavening agent.
  • 1/4 teaspoon Salt Balances sweetness.
  • 1 cup Chocolate Chips Optional for extra chocolatey goodness.

Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a 9x9 inch baking pan by greasing it or lining it with parchment paper.
  2. Mash the ripe bananas in a large bowl until smooth. Stir in granulated sugar and packed brown sugar until well combined, then add melted unsalted butter.
  3. Beat in the large eggs one at a time, then pour in the vanilla extract, mixing until fluffy.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Gradually fold this into the banana mixture until just combined.
  5. Fold in the chocolate chips if desired, being careful not to overmix.
  6. Spread the batter evenly in the prepared pan and bake for about 25 minutes or until edges are set and center jiggles slightly.
  7. Let the brownies cool for 10 minutes in the pan before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
