Recipe Notes
Expert Tips for Perfect Oil-Free Brownies
- Ripe Bananas are Key: Use very ripe bananas for maximum sweetness and moisture. The riper, the better!
- Don't Overmix: Overmixing can lead to tough brownies. Mix until just combined.
- Adjust Sweetness: Adjust the amount of jaggery (or maple syrup/brown sugar) to your liking. Taste the batter before baking and add more if needed.
- Cooling is Crucial: Allow the brownies to cool completely before cutting. This prevents them from crumbling and allows them to set properly.
