Method
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease an 8x8 inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
- In a medium-sized bowl, mash the overripe bananas until they are smooth. A few small lumps are fine.
- Add the cocoa powder and creamy peanut butter to the mashed bananas. Stir everything together until the batter is well-combined, thick, and glossy.
- Pour the batter into your prepared baking pan and spread it into an even layer. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean or with moist crumbs.
- Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan before slicing. This is essential for them to set properly and achieve a fudgy texture.

Notes
Tip 1: Use Very Ripe Bananas. The sweetness of this recipe comes entirely from the bananas, so make sure they are very ripe with lots of brown spots for the best flavor.
Tip 2: Cool Before Cutting. These brownies are very delicate when warm. Letting them cool completely allows them to firm up, making them easy to slice cleanly.
Tip 3: Add-Ins. Feel free to mix in 1/2 cup of chocolate chips or chopped nuts for extra texture and flavor.
