No Sugar Added Protein Peanut Butter Banana Brownies

You can make this recipe with regular ingredients if you prefer! (Regular sugar would be 1 1/4 cup and regular peanut butter would be the same as the PB2) (Avocado would be replaced with 1/2 cup of butter if you'd like)

Uh-oh! We're unable to calculate nutrition for this recipe because some ingredients aren't recognized.

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and grease a 9x13 baking pan with butter, oil, or non-stick cooking spray.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl mash the over ripe bananas, then add the 1/2 cup sugar substitute, 1/2 of a smashed avocado, 2 teaspoons vanilla extract, and pinch of salt. Stir to combine.

Step 3

Next sift in the flour, protein, and cocoa powder. Fold in without over-mixing.

Step 4

Once combined, pour the brownie mixture into your prepared 9x13 baking pan.

Step 5

Add water 1 tablespoon to PB2 powder continuously until you get smooth consistency. Should amount to 1/2 cup of peanut butter.

Step 6

Add spoon fulls of the ½ cup creamy PB2 peanut butter mixture and then use a butter knife to swirl in the peanut butter.

Step 7

Place baking tray into your 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until an inserted toothpick comes out without wet batter. *The longer you bake your brownies the more 'set' they will be. Slightly under-baked yields fudgier brownies.

Step 8

Remove from oven and allow to cool completely before serving.
