Dress these brownies up with icing to make a delicious dessert or a snack on-the-go. Either way, they are delicious. I made these with my cherry-coconut whipped cream and they were awesome! Gluten free often makes desserts dry and brittle but this version is a lot more moist than the standard gluten-free brownie recipe. Bananas are the key. Find some browning or rotting bananas, it will bring a chewy, moistness without the banana aftertaste.

  • Combine flour, maple syrup, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl; blend well and make a well in the center. Combine mashed bananas, coconut milk, olive oil, and vanilla extract in a second bowl. Pour banana mixture into the flour mixture and stir until batter is evenly mixed. Fold in chocolate chips. Pour batter into the prepared baking dish and sprinkle with cocoa nibs.

  • Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 30 minutes. Let cool completely before slicing.

Cook's Note:

I used about 3 well ripened, brown bananas to get 1 cup of banana puree.

I liked these - I'm always looking for more natural sweetened treats to avoid white sugar and these definitely fit in that category. When I tasted the batter the maple syrup and banana flavors were very strong so I added an extra teaspoon of vanilla and about 10 drops of Sweetleaf Sweet Drops Vanilla stevia sweetener drops & skipped the cacao nibs (which I didn't have on hand) otherwise made as directed. You could easily substitute other milks for the coconut milk if you don t keep that on hand and do not need them to be vegan. The maple syrup and banana flavor was much more prominent right after I made them last night it mellowed by this morning to be more subtle and actually tasted better. One other note is that you can move the syrup to be mixed in with the liquid ingredients - it's place in the recipe is probably from an original sugar ingredient being mixed with other dry ingredients. Since it was swapped for a liquid sweetener I would just mix it in with the other "wet" ingredients instead. Thanks for contributing a healthier and gluten free version of a classic dessert!
