Banana Bread Brownies Recipe
Ingredients:
1 ½ cups sugar
1 cup sour cream
2 eggs
3 well-mashed ripe bananas
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp baking soda
¾ tsp salt
½ cup crushed walnuts
2 tsp vanilla essence
Topping:
3 cups icing sugar
3 tbsp milk
½ cup unsalted butter
1 ½ tsp vanilla essence
How to Make:
Preheat your oven to 375°F. Get a 9×13 baking dish and grease it.
Whisk sugar, sour cream, and butter till creamy.
Mix in eggs, then bananas and vanilla.
Separately, combine flour, baking soda, and salt. Add this gradually to your wet mix.
Mix in those walnuts.
Empty the mix into your dish, smoothing the surface.
Bake 25-30 mins. Check with a toothpick – it should come out clean. Let it cool.
For the icing: Melt and cool the butter a tad. Whisk in the icing sugar, vanilla, and milk to a creamy texture.
Spread this atop the cooled brownies. When the icing is firm, slice and serve.
Relish the blend of decadent chocolate and banana’s natural sweetness with every Banana Bread Brownie bite. Happy eating!
