01
Step 1
Start by heating your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish. In a big bowl, mix together the flour, maple syrup, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt until everything is well combined. Make a little well in the center of the dry ingredients.

Step 2
In another bowl, mash up the bananas and then stir in the coconut milk, olive oil, and vanilla extract. Pour this wet mixture into the dry ingredients and give it a good stir until the batter comes together evenly. Gently fold in the chocolate chips.

Step 3
Spread the batter evenly in your prepared baking dish and sprinkle the top with cocoa nibs for a nice crunch. Pop it in the oven and bake for about 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

Once it’s done, let it cool completely before cutting into squares so the brownies hold together nicely. Enjoy!
