Ingredients

For the Banana Bread Bars:

  • Plain Greek yogurt (or sour cream), 1 cup 
  • Butter softened, 1/2 cup 
  • 2 large eggs
  • 3-4 ripe bananas (mashed)
  • Vanilla extract, 2 teaspoons 
  • All-purpose flour, 2 cups 
  • Baking soda, 1 teaspoon
  • Salt, 3/4 teaspoon 

For the Glaze:

  • Butter, 4 tablespoons
  • Powdered sugar, 2 cups
  • Vanilla extract, 1 teaspoon 
  • Milk, 1-2 tablespoon

Step By Step Instructions To Make Banana Bread Brownies

Step 1

Use non-stick cooking spray to grease a 9 by 13-inch pan and preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.

Step 2

In a large bowl, combine the butter and sugar. Add the bananas, sour cream, eggs, and vanilla extract.  

Step 3

Just until moistened, add the flour, baking soda, and salt. If walnuts are being used, stir them in.

Step 4

In the prepared pan, spread batter evenly and bake for 23-28 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. As the bars bake, make the frosting.

For the Brown Butter Frosting:

Step 1

Melt the butter over medium heat in a large skillet. When it begins to turn a delicate brown and has a nutty aroma (watch carefully so you don’t burn the butter!) remove it from the heat.

Step 2

Add the powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and milk and whisk until smooth. It may be necessary to add a little more powdered sugar, or milk if the frosting needs to be thickened or thinned. 

Step 3

Over the warm bars, pour the warm frosting.  Use a spoon to spread gently.
