Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare an 8×8-inch baking pan lined with parchment paper.
  2. Mash the ripe bananas in a mixing bowl until smooth, free of lumps.
  3. Add eggs, maple syrup, Greek yogurt, and melted coconut oil to the mashed bananas and whisk until smooth.
  4. Sift in cocoa powder, oat flour, baking soda, sea salt, and cinnamon (if using) into the wet mixture and stir gently until a thick batter forms.
  5. Fold in dark chocolate chips or chopped chocolate until evenly distributed.
  6. Pour the batter into the prepared pan, spreading it evenly, and top with more chocolate chips or nuts if desired.
  7. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes. A toothpick should come out with a few moist crumbs.
  8. Allow the brownies to cool in the pan for 20-30 minutes before lifting them out using parchment paper to cut into squares.
