Ingredients
  

For the Brownie Batter

  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/3 cup cocoa powder
For the Mix-ins and Topping
  • 1/4 cup milk or substitute with almond milk
  • 1 cup chocolate chips optional
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 2 tablespoons butter for topping, optional

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper.
  2. Mash ripe bananas in a large mixing bowl. Add melted butter, granulated sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract, mixing until creamy.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, salt, and cocoa powder. Fold dry ingredients into the wet mixture carefully.
  4. Add milk and chocolate chips to the batter, folding them in gently to distribute evenly.
  5. Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly.
  6. In a small bowl, combine brown sugar and cinnamon, then sprinkle it over the batter. Dot with butter if desired.
  7. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes. Check doneness with a toothpick; it should come out with a few moist crumbs.
  8. Cool the brownies in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
