Ingredients

  • 3 ripe bananas
  • 1 cup Nutella
  • ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder Dutch processed
  • ¼ cup chocolate chips optional

Instructions

  • Place ripe banana in a bowl.
  • Mash thoroughly using stick blender or fork until its smooth creamy.
  • Add slightly warmed Nutella chocolate spread and unsweetened cocoa powder to creamed banana. Using a silicon spatula mix everything together.
  • Line an 8x8 or 7x7 baking dish with parchment paper.
  • Grease parchment paper with cooking oil or butter.
  • Pour the batter into prepared pan and level the top using silicon spatula.
  • Optional step – sprinkle chocolate chips evenly on top.
  • Bake in pre-heated oven at 350°F for 35-40 minutes or until brownies are barely set. A tooth pick inserted at the center should come out ‘just’ clean, with some crumbs sticking to it.
  • Let brownies cool completely at room temperature before slicing.

Notes

  1. Though Nutella is best for this brownie, any kind of chocolate spread can be used.
  2. You can use homemade Nutella or store bought Nutella.
  3. Microwave Nutella for 20 to 30 seconds to slightly warm it up. Usually store bought Nutella are too thick, warming it lightly will loosen it, thus easy to mix batter.
  4. Use fresh ripe banana for this recipe. Frozen banana won’t be suitable as they contain excess moisture.
  5. Remove brownies from oven early, at 25 minutes mark for ultra-gooey brownies.
  6. You can make this brownie the way YOU like. Reducing cocoa powder by a tablespoon will make the brownies fudgier and by adding 1 to 2 tablespoon extra cocoa powder the brownies will result in cakier texture.
  7. Chocolate chips are optional but highly recommended. Nutella and melty chocolate chips provides a complete satisfaction in every bite.
