Ingredients

    1 cup whole wheat flour
    1 cup carob powder (cocoa powder can be substituted, carob is what I had on hand)
    1 teaspoon cinnamon
    1 teaspoon baking powder
    1/4 teaspoon sea salt
    1 cup mashed banana (about 3 small bananas)
    1/2 cup honey
    1/4 cup olive oil
    2 teaspoons vanilla extract
    2 eggs
    1/4 cup mini carob or chocolate chips, or chopped chocolate
    1/2 cup chopped nuts (optional)

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a 8x8 pan with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, combine whole wheat flour, carob powder, cinnamon, baking powder and salt. In another medium bowl, whisk mashed banana, honey, olive oil, vanilla and eggs. Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Add the carob/chocolate chips and/or nuts. Spread into the prepared pan
Bake brownies for 20-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Pull the full pan of brownies out to cool completely on a rack. Cut brownies when cool and serve. Keep in an airtight container.
