Ingredients

  • 2 ripe bananas, mashed

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted

  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  • In a large bowl, mash the bananas until smooth.

  • Add melted butter, brown sugar, and vanilla extract. Stir until combined.
