Inspired by the comfort of banana split sundaes but with the chew of brownies. Needed for the goodness of summer on one of those oddly sunny cold June days in Southern California.
These brownies are reminiscent of ice-cream cold, but pudding-esque if enjoyed warm. Best eaten with a fork. Paired with a nice scoop of vanilla ice-cream. And beyond perfection with a generous drizzle of hot fudge.
Banana Split Brownies
1 pckg brownie mix (8×8 pan style)
1 egg
1/4 c water
1/4 c vegetable oil
1/2 large banana, mashed (i had to use the other half for a peanut butter sandwich)
For the topping:
1 large banana, mashed
1/8 c soymilk
1/2 Tbsp cornstarch
1/2 tsp vanilla
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Combine the brownie mix, egg, water, oil, and banana in a large bowl until mostly smooth. Combine all the ingredients for the brownie topping in a small bowl until well combined. Pour the brownie mix into a greased 8×8 pan. Pour the banana mixture over the brownie mix, being careful to avoid the edges (or else you’ll end up with a big gooey mess). Bake for about 40 minutes. Well be slightly pudding-y.
These are easily veganized by replacing the egg with 1 mashed banana and using a vegan brownie mix (I think most Duncan Hines mixes are vegan).
Oh. my. goodness. gracious. **faints**
