Rich, dark and fudgy, these Flourless Blender Banana Brownies are the easiest and probably the best brownies you will ever have. Ultra chocolatey, made with just a handful of ingredients, and actually healthy!

They’re dark, double chocolate, fudge brownies, made with bananas, almond butter, applesauce, cocoa/cacao powder and chocolate chips; and are bars of fudgy banana bread!

A real dream come true!

I had a couple of overripe bananas a few weeks ago and couldn’t decide what to make with them, so I put a vote out on my insta story to see what you guys wanted. Fudgy banana brownies won by a mile! Especially that fudgy part.

Clearly you all are better at making decisions than I am!

What you need?

Bananas – Kinda obvious I guess. Can’t really have banana bread brownies without some good overripe bananas now can you? Make sure they’re spotty all over!
Creamy Almond Butter – The fat source, so there’s no oil or butter in these brownies – also makes them Paleo.
Peanut Butter, Cashew Butter or even Tahini (mmm, maybe I should try these next) would be just fine.
Applesauce – I subbed part of the almond butter in the original recipe for applesauce to reduce some of the fat, but you can just switch it back in. Or use pumpkin puree!
Egg – Just one of these to give them a slight rise.

Easy and healthy flourless banana fudge brownies made in a blender with cocoa or raw cacao powder and almond butter to make the best paleo dessert!

Cacao Powder – I used raw Cacao, but unsweetened cocoa powder is just as good! Gives these brownies that deep chocolatey flavor.
1:1 Sugar Substitute – I went for a sugar-free sugar substitute from Lakanto to make these no-sugar brownies, but an equal amount or regular sugar (or coconut sugar to keep it natural) is a great alternative.
Baking Powder – Need that rising agent in there. If you don’t have baking powder, use ⅓ of the amount of baking soda instead.
Stevia-Sweetened Dark Chocolate or Chocolate Chips – These are to fold into the batter (and some for the top) to give the double chocolate brownies an extra fudge factor, but still have them as a no-added-sugar version.
I used dark chocolate from Lily’s.

How to make/bake them?

As you can tell from the name these brownies are blend and bake.

Blend the bananas, almond butter, applesauce and egg in a blender
Mix the cacao/cocoa powder, sugar and baking powder in a bowl, add it in, and blend again
Fold in the chopped chocolate or chocolate chips
Pour that gooey fudgy brownie batter into a parchment-lined 8×8” pan
Top it with some more chocolate (coz why not?)
Bake at 350°F for exactly 23 minutes

And that’s it!
Super easy flourless fudgy and dark chocolate banana brownies with a blender in under 30 minutes – definitely the best process possible!

You might want to wait for them to cool before slicing and digging in though.

These double chocolate fudgy paleo banana brownies are made with almond butter and chocolate chip, and have no flour, no sugar, no butter and no dairy at all - the best low calorie and gluten free brownie recipe!

Can you store these?

Of course! But let them cool first.

Keep them at room temperature in an airtight container for about 2-3 days.

In the fridge for about a week (airtight container again).

In the freezer for 2-3 months individually wrapped in plastic wrap (as little banana brownie bars) and placed in zipper bags.

Why are they healthy?

These fudgy chocolate brownies are made with no butter, no oil and no milk either (makes them dairy free too).

The brownies are made with almond butter and applesauce (and banana too I guess) for the fat source – making them Paleo-friendly and Whole30 approved!

The brownies call for raw cacao or unsweetened cocoa powder, and if you use a sugar-free sugar substitute and stevia-sweetened chocolate, these brownies have no added sugar, just the natural one from the banana.

The best part though? They’re gluten-free and flourless banana brownies, and don’t use any of the alternative flours either – clearly healthy, and low calorie too!
