Easy Banana Brownies image

A small banana is added to a basic made-from-scratch brownie for a hint of banana flavor. This is a fudgy brownie and it does not rise much. Add 1/2 cup chopped nuts or mini chocolate chips for more flavor. No mixer required!

Number Of Ingredients 8

½ cup butter
⅔ cup semisweet chocolate chips
1 large egg
⅔ cup packed light brown sugar
1 small ripe banana, mashed
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
¼ teaspoon salt
¾ cup all-purpose flour

Steps:

  • Preheat an oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease an 8 inch square pan.
  • Melt butter in sauce pan over medium-low heat. Remove from heat, add chips, and stir until melted. Set aside to cool for 5 minutes.
