This recipe comes from my Grandma Schlientz. Anytime there are ripe bananas around our house, it's Banana Nut Brownie time! People are always surprised to learn there are bananas in the brownies.

Substitute for NutsIf your family loves the crunch of nuts in brownies and chocolate chip cookies, but someone is allergic to them, add granola or crisp rice cereal in the same amounts as the nuts called for in your recipes. But, always check the granola or cereal packages for nut allergy alerts to be certain.

A nice chewy brownie without an overly sweet, gooey, greasy texture. The flavors are well balanced. We really enjoyed them.

Excellent. Very moist. Used 1/4 c all-purpose flour and 1/4 c whole wheat flour and no taste difference. Next time I will try all whole wheat. Powered sugar hides funny looking (but not funny tasting) texture on top.

Wow, this is a delicious dessert! Normally in a banana bread, the amt. of banana isn't so prevelant. In this recipe, the banana flavor plays a huge roll and it compliments the chocolate! The combo is fabulous. The brownie is moist, rich, and satisfying! My husband luv'd it! His requested that next time I create this recipe, to please add either chocolate chips or peanut butter chips! Taking it to the next level! Enjoy!

This was a yummy snack-cake-like textured treat that me & my kids enjoyed with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, drizzled with hot fudge sauce. I could taste the bananas in mine which if fine by me. Yum!
