The Best Fudgy Chocolate Brownies

These vegan banana brownies are the gooiest, best-textured brownies that I've ever made. They're also completely gluten free, using oat flour which I love so much.

I think you will also love my vegan chocolate peanut butter cups recipe, as it is another amazing chocolate and gluten free treat.

Tips For Making These Brownies

Use Very Ripe Bananas

This will give the brownies an intense and delicious banana flavour that a unripe banana could never give it.

Another benefit of them being rip is that they can act as vegan egg replacers when mashed. It's a win win.

Slicing These Brownies

Wait until the brownies have cooled down before you slice them into squares. This can be difficult as they're so tempting but trust me, these are gluten free and breakable. They ideally need a set a little.

How To Serve Banana Brownies

I love to have these healthier brownies for breakfast. Serve with a warm cup of tea or coffee and enjoy.

If you are eating the brownies warm, I recommend eating them with vegan vanilla ice cream. It's such a delicious combination.

How To Store Vegan Brownies

Store these vegan banana brownies inside an airtight container, inside the fridge for up to 4 days.

They taste so good when you eat them straight from the fridge when they're nice and cool. Alternatively, you can warm them up again.
