This Healthy Double Chocolate Brownie Bars Recipe makes a fudgy, chewy, brownie like dessert that will satisfy your chocolate cravings without the guilt!

Ingredients

  • 2 cups oats
  • 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 3 Large very ripe bananas
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/2 cup mini semi sweet chocolate chips (divided)

Directions

Step 1
Preheat oven to 350
Add oats to a food processor and pulse until very finely ground.
Add cocoa powder and pulse again.
Add bananas and brown sugar and pulse until well combined.
Add salt, vanilla, baking powder, and egg. Pulse until well blended.
Step 2
Stir in half of the chocolate chips and spread batter into a greased 8x8" pan. Sprinkle remaining chocolate chips on top.
Bake 12-15 minutes or until tester comes out with fudgy crumbs. (Do not over bake or they will be dry. 13 minutes is the sweet spot in my oven.)
Store covered at room temperature.

    Can I use two cups of flour? I don’t want to use oats. I like to bake brownies the regular way.

    Your recipe of healthy double chocolate brownies specifies for 2 cups of oats? What kind of oats are needed? Old fashioned? Quick cooking?

      Hi Katie! You can use either type of oats. Since you grind it into flour, it doesn’t really matter. I have used both kinds with success 🙂 I use old fashioned more often because that’s what I keep on hand. enjoy!
