How to Make Banana Cocoa Brownies
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 13x9x2 inch baking pan.
- In a medium bowl, combine 1 cup rolled oats and 1/2 cup boiling water. Let stand for 5 minutes to soften.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat 2 large egg whites until frothy. Add 3 ripe mashed bananas, 1/2 cup brown sugar, 1/4 cup granulated sugar, 1/3 cup vegetable oil, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Beat until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder, 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 1/2 teaspoon baking powder, 1/4 teaspoon baking soda, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Stir in the softened oatmeal mixture.
- Pour batter into the prepared baking pan and spread evenly.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs attached (don't expect it to be completely clean, as these are moist brownies).
- Let cool completely in the pan before cutting into bars. Enjoy!
