Maca Brownie Recipe

Do you have a favorite healthy dessert recipe?

In this free herbal recipe, we upgraded classic brownies by adding in maca root, and using bananas and peanut butter as a base.

Maca root has both a powerful adaptogen effect and powerful taste, and the earthy flavor is excellent when combined with chocolate. These brownies are almost too rich and decadent.

Ingredients:

  • 4 large bananas (very ripe)

  • 2/3 cup smooth 100% peanut butter

  • 2/3 cup cocoa powder

  • 3 tbsp brown sugar

  • 2/3 tsp baking soda

  • 1 tbsp maca root powder

  • 1 tsp salt

Instructions:

  1. Preheat oven to 350F.

  2. Peel the bananas, and using a fork or your hands, thoroughly mash them in a large bowl.

  3. Add all other ingredients, and mix until evenly combined.

  4. In a lined baking dish, spread the brownie batter evenly, approx. 2 inches thick.

  5. Bake for 25-35 minutes, until firm.

  6. Remove from baking dish and place brownies on wire rack to cool.
