Talk about fudgy indulgence. These ultra-moist banana chocolate are the stuff fudgy dreams are made of. They are whisked up in a pinch and are a perfect pairing with coffee after Sunday breakfast or brunch.
They are completely dairy-free and can be made gluten-free using the gluten-free oat and oat flour.
These brownies are deceivingly good, they do in fact look a bit of a gooey mess, but grab a spoonful and you will not be disappointed.
