Ingredients
Here’s what you’ll need to create these delicious treats:
For the Banana Bread Brownies • Granulated Sugar – This sweetener is key for balancing flavors and making your brownies tender. • Sour Cream – This tangy ingredient keeps the brownies moist and adds a nice depth of flavor. • Butter – Adds richness and helps keep the brownies soft. • Eggs – They bind everything together and give the brownies some lift. • Ripe Bananas – The main star that brings natural sweetness, moisture, and that classic banana taste. Make sure they’re nice and ripe for the best flavor! • Vanilla Extract – Just a splash to boost all the flavors. • All-Purpose Flour – The essential ingredient that gives structure to your brownies. • Baking Soda and Salt – These help the brownies rise and balance out the sweetness. • Chopped Walnuts – They add a nice nutty crunch that pairs perfectly with the soft brownies.
For the Brown Butter Frosting • Butter – Browned just right, this is the flavorful base that takes the frosting to the next level. • Powdered Sugar – It sweetens things up and makes the frosting smooth and easy to spread. • Vanilla Extract – The ultimate flavor booster. • Milk – This helps thin out the frosting to your preferred consistency and adds a creamy touch.
Measured Ingredients:
For the Brownies
1 1⁄2 cups granulated sugar
1 cup sour cream
1⁄2 cup butter, softened
2 large eggs
3-4 ripe bananas, mashed
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
3⁄4 teaspoon salt
1⁄2 cup chopped walnuts
For the Frosting
1⁄4 cup butter
3-4 cups powdered sugar
1 1⁄2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2-3 tablespoons milk
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease and line a 9×13-inch pan with cooking spray and parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides.
For the banana bread bars, beat the sugar, sour cream, softened butter, and eggs in a large bowl until creamy. Mix in the bananas and vanilla.
Sift in the flour, baking soda, and salt. Mix carefully with a spatula until well combined. Mix in the walnuts.
Spread the batter evenly into the prepared pan. Bake it for 30-35 minutes or until golden brown. Allow to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before frosting and serving.
While the brownies cool, make the frosting. Heat the butter in a large pan over medium heat until it boils and browns. Stir frequently. Remove it from the heat and transfer it to a large bowl.
To the bowl, add half of the powdered sugar, vanilla, and milk. Whisk the mixture until smooth, and add more powdered sugar as needed. Spread the frosting over the warm banana bread brownies. Serve them and enjoy!
