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:
Preheat oven to 350F.
Peel the bananas, and using a fork or your hands, thoroughly mash them in a large bowl.
Add all other ingredients, and mix until evenly combined.
In a lined baking dish, spread the brownie batter evenly, approx. 2 inches thick.
Bake for 25-35 minutes, until firm.
Remove from baking dish and place brownies on wire rack to cool.
