Tips:
- Use ripe bananas: Make sure your bananas are ripe and spotty. This will ensure they're sweet and moist, and they'll help to bind the brownies together.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter can make the brownies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Use a variety of beans: Don't be afraid to experiment with different types of beans. Black beans, kidney beans, and pinto beans all work well in brownies.
- Add mix-ins: Feel free to add your favorite mix-ins to the brownies, such as chocolate chips, nuts, or dried fruit.
- Bake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs attached: Overbaking will make the brownies dry.
