Easy + Delicious Banana Blondies. OMG These are SO good & the brown sugar frosting takes it to another level.

I’m pretty sure all banana baked goods start with the same thought. “Oh no, my bananas are brown. Why didn’t I just eat them while they were still good! I don’t want to throw them away. I paid good money for those.” So one has two options. To bake or to be a banana waster. I choose the former most of the time because it’s a good excuse. I love to bake.

I also love to frost things with delicious brown sugar frosting that happens to be super easy to make (you don’t even have to get out your mixer!) Please make these the next time you have a brown banana. You won’t regret it.

Are you getting out your ingredients? I thought so. If you don’t have a brown banana you can probably buy one for a discount at the store. Grocers don’t like to be banana wasters either.

Last thing. If you love brownie edges, try THIS pan! It will change your life.

    Unfortunately I have bananas that go brown often. Usually I just make banana bread, but this is WAY better!
