- 1 and 1/2 cups mashed overripe banana*
- 3/4 cup peanut butter (or almond butter)
- 1/3 cup cocoa powder
- 1/3 cup chocolate protein powder
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a 7×7 or 8×8-inch square baking dish with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, add mashed banana, peanut butter, cocoa powder, chocolate protein powder, vanilla extract, and salt. Mix together until evenly combined. Then, add the chocolate chips. Mix together.

Notes
- *Use bananas are that overripe. The peels should be soft and yellow with brown spots all over them.
- Make sure you let the brownies cool completely before slicing. They are ultra fudgy and moist, which makes them delicate while warm.
- Store brownies inside a sealed container inside the refrigerator. Enjoy within 3-5 days. If saving longterm, store inside the freezer for 1 month.
