Hi there– Saw these banana bread brownies on Pinterest and knew they’d be in our kitchen soon! I’ve eaten a few (delicious!!) and am taking the rest over to my father-in-law, Stu. He’s my enthusiastic baking recipient. We have mutual love of sweet treats.
BANANA BREAD BROWNIES
Brownies:
1 large banana, smashed
1 cup sugar
1 egg
1/2 cup sour cream
1/4 cup butter, melted
1 tsp. vanilla
1 cup flour
1/2 tsp. baking powder
1/3 tsp. salt
1 cup walnuts, chopped*
Glaze:
1/4 cup butter, melted
1 1/2 cup powdered sugar
1/2 tsp. vanilla
2 tab. milk
Smash the bananas in a mixing bowl. Stir in the sugar, egg and sour cream. Then mix in the melted butter and vanilla. Finally stir in the flour, baking powder, salt and walnuts.
Spoon the batter into a 7″ x 11″ baking dish (or 9″ square) that has been spray with cooking spray. Bake it up at 375 degrees for 25 minutes, until it is golden on top and a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
Mix up the glaze ingredients– melted butter, powdered sugar, vanilla and milk, beating until it’s smooth. And pour directly over the hot banana brownies. Enjoy!
*That’s a lot of walnuts! The recipe I worked from used 1/2 cup, but I just like things nutty.

Hey Debra- thanks. What have you been baking up lately?? We are traveling for a couple weeks with our kids so I need to get over to your posts soon as we get home!! Miss reading them. xo
Well that looks pretty fabulous. I will always be a baked good receiver.
Thanks thanks Lisa (we are in the middle of a crazy month of traveling—right now in Hong Kong with our kids. So I haven’t been able to keep up with all your great book reviews— be fun to be home and catch up with all you’ve been reading.). xo
Good timing. I haven’t been posting much. Safe travels.
HI Lisa! We are finally back! Just nipped over to your blog and read through a bunch of book reviews! I’ve got My Oxford Year at the top of my list! thanks. xox
It was amazing. How to Fall in Love with a Man who Lives in the Bush is also great and based on a true story – the author’s.
Sounds great– I’m really liking reading people’s real stories at this stage in life. I’ll be checking in for more books Lisa! thanks thanks.
