Banana Bread Brownies

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8-inch square baking pan.

In a large mixing bowl, use a fork to mash the ripe bananas until smooth. You should have about 1 cup of mashed banana.

Add the granulated sugar, brown sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract to the mashed bananas. Whisk until the mixture is well combined.

In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the banana mixture, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

Fold in the chocolate chips, ensuring an even distribution throughout the batter.

Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly with a spatula.

Bake in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.

Allow the brownies to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing into squares.
