Sorry for the quick hit here but I was tweeting about these brownies and how delicious they are so I needed to get it up quickly in my very limited time!
I took my favorite brownie recipe and replaced all of the fat from the butter with 1/2 cup of mashed ripe bananas and then placed slices on the top. These turned out moist and cakey on the bottom and deliciously gooey on top…
I made these from the following recipe but when thinking about it I really want to try it with a boxed brownie mix. It should work the same! Replace the full 1/3 cup of oil with 1/3 cup mashed up banana and follow the rest of the instructions…

Sliced bananas for topping

No freaking way! No-fat brownies? Sounds awesome. I'll need to try these.
This is such an incredible recipe... I am humbled by the concept
With the brownies in them I imagine these are healthy too!!
Yummy! I love how you put the little slices of banana on top for photo value :)
I really like the sliced bananas on top!
I'm totally in a chocolate banana mood now! These look so great, Judy!
That's a chocolate cake to kill for! mm. I just uploaded a new episode of my online cooking show, I'm making Swedish Cupcakes! Please check it out. Linn
They're SO pretty! I just love the banana slices. I'm always up for a new brownie recipe!
Did you top with the banana slices before putting the pan in the oven, or after baking? And how did these brownies keep? Did the banana slices begin to get moldy after a day or two?
interesting adjustment :)
I stumbled across this tonight and am trying out the way you suggested for boxed brownies! It called for a half cup of oil so I mashed a half cup of banana and sliced an entire banana and put those on top. It looks delicious! I hope it turns out as good as yours looks. :)
These are absolutely INCREDIBLE!!! I used coconut flour for fun...
These are a real winner!! It's all good!
