Step 4: Combine Dry Ingredients
In a separate bowl, whisk together:
- Flour
- Baking powder
- Salt
Gradually add the dry mixture into the wet mixture, stirring gently until just combined. Avoid overmixing, as this can make the brownies dense.
Step 5: Add Extras (Optional)
Fold in chocolate chips or nuts if you like. These additions enhance both texture and flavor, making each bite more exciting.
Step 6: Bake to Perfection
Pour the batter into your prepared pan and spread it evenly. Bake for 20–25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
Let the brownies cool completely before adding frosting.
Step 7: Prepare the Frosting
In a bowl, beat together:
- Softened butter
- Powdered sugar
- Vanilla extract
Add milk gradually until you reach a smooth, spreadable consistency.
Step 8: Frost and Serve
Spread the frosting evenly over the cooled brownies. Slice into squares and serve.
Tips for Success
- Use very ripe bananas: The darker the peel, the sweeter and more flavorful your brownies will be.
- Don’t overbake: Slightly underbaked centers keep that soft brownie texture.
- Cool before cutting: This helps the brownies hold their shape and improves texture.
