My wife bought a box of Ghirardelli multi pack brownies at Costcos...so I'll skip making the scratch part & go straight to adding the bananas! This recipe calls to me in my near future!
Update: DELISH!!! Also added a little baking powder to make it a tad more "cakey". Also, after cooking and cooling, I cut an inch of the perimeter of the brownies (9x9 pan) and cut bite size (crunchier) caramelized pieces! woah...great with a coffee! 👍👍
I always love the videos that contain a... ahem, an opportunity for improvement... as they show us how to recover from them! As someone whose creme brulee torch has been shelved for a long while due to a brief, but smelly, exposure to brunt sugar, this might be what I needed to find a reason to use it again!
The dry ingredients are the ones which are not wet. The wet ingredients therefore become the "not dry ingredients". I Love it. Another of my favourite UA-camrs, Life of Boris, called eggs 'chicken produce', but has also been known to call a chicken an "eggbird." As a Spike Milligna (the well known typing error) fan from way back, this appeals to my sense of the ridiculous.
I saw your video last night, and made a batch of brownies this afternoon. Oh my, were they good!! I did substitute a 8x11.5 in glass pan with no issues. I also didn't have chocolate squares, so I used my cocoa/melted butter mix. They were still amazing. Unfortunately, even cut into 12 pieces, I don't think they will last through the night with 4 adults in the house. Thank you Chef, for all the great videos.😍 (from St. Thomas, Ontario)
These banana bread brownies are simply irresistible! Moist, flavorful, and just the perfect balance of banana and chocolate. Chef John never disappoints with his recipes. Can't wait to try more from his channel! 😋🍌🍫
I think my preferred done-ness for brownies might be what Chef John is calling overcooked. They should have a firm chewiness to them with a crispiness around the edges.
I just made these. Cut into 16 though. The centre ones are kind of like brownies, but the outside is more like banana bread. It's really great though. I wish measurements were weighed, because volumetric use just bla
This looks very delicious. I've never had creme Brule. Looks like I need to make this recipe and creme Brule as well. Hopefully, Chef John has a recipe for that as well. Edit - Chef John only has a recipe for pumpkin creme Brule. I sincerely hope he makes a video for cream Brule very soon since his recipes are my absolute favorite.
Baking this now and the whole house smells great 🤤 btw, I panicked when I didn't see the duration of time to bake in the instructions 😅 luckily it's at the video 😘
Fantastic. Other than the burnt sugar in the walnuts, but that's easily remedied. I'm thinking more along the lines of finishing with butter and brown sugar. For kind of a banana is foster effect.
@@shaunhall284 challenged to find improvements to their culinary skills, maybe. It's well known that sweet/spicy and chocolate/spicy are good combinations.
When ever I hear Chef John say "...add a touch of sugar..." I flinch and feel my blood-sugar levels peak out even before we see him dump in a shirtload of sugar.
First time i failed when following your video, Sir. Could please tell me what i might have done wrong? My batter has risen in the oven, sort of like cake? Thank you, Chef! It was still tasty! 😅
You can see that he has poked before and it didn't pass the test so back in the oven it went, that's cooking! That banana brûlée was a bit too daring after all that work I'd say.
you could probably pull it 5 minutes early from the oven, add the sugar on top and put it back in to finish baking? though that wouldn't quite "brulee" it...
Happy Tuesday Chef John, Look at you rappin. "Mixin and a mashin smooshin and smashin" --Chef John You know the young folks might want to be smashin too ;-) Good stuff Cheers!
Please keep in mind I am saying this after sourcing the information from what I heard people say on the internet, rather than actually doing proper research, so yeah, take it with a pinch of salt. From what I understand, self rising flour in the U.S. comes with salt included from the milling side of things, while in alot of other countries (Canada and Australia being two of these countries) the salt isn't added to the flour when it's milled. So I guess, if you get the plain flour and add everything yourself, you can control what goes in - or doesn't go in.
@@bandiceet oh i had no clue but it makes sence i guess all i know i my mother always said self rising was just all purpose with salt & baking soda so i never understood the point of all purpose but what you said never occured to me. ty again. 😄
@@bandiceet Absolutely. Either you have the experience and know your flour, or stick to the recipe. e.g. tonight I'm making something that needs garlic salt, but don't have any on hand. Instead I'll use the 3:1 ratio of salt and garlic.
I've always said that 3 worded food items that all begin with the letter B are the best. Thank you, Chef John.
Bland boiled broccoli. 😋
Browned Brussels with Bacon 😆

Usually hate cooked bananas but will def try this cos it's from Chef John.

My partner's birthday is coming up and he requested banana bread... will definitely be making these as a surprise! Thank you :)
adorable 😊👍
That's fantastic of you to do that! I'm sure they will be very pleasantly surprised!
I was looking for something different for my birthday and this is it! Can’t wait to make these, thanks Chef John!
The crumbs on the plate at the end form the world’s sweetest smiley face
I saw banana bread and said, "Yes, chef!!"
Same
That intro and that lilting cadence. ❤ I haven’t watched for a bit. Feels just like coming home.
Well, Chef John's banana bread is our favorite all time. Our go-to banana bread. Now brownies too? This looks great.
This looks like a great recipe -- easy to make and combines two classic desserts in a fresh original way.
oooh, that looks absolutely delicious
Sending love to you and your wife and I hope you have a great year in both kitchen and garden 🪴😻
This looks like an amazing recipe to make "special"
This recipe reminds me of when I had “Banana Foster Crème Brûlée.” So, I’m definitely going to try this soon! Thank you, Chef John! 😊

Excellent description of "Dry ingredients" !
I've been wanting to do something like this for years but couldn't quite figure it out. The time has come!
@@shaunhall284 No existing recipe that I've seen was satisfactory to me. Even Chef John's I'll be modifying to my tastes an experimenting with
@@Twisted_Logic I understand that!
Now that is my kind of portion 😋
Made these without the banana topping and they were still fantastic. Thanks Chef John!
It’s official, I love Chef John
I will 100% be making this. No doubt. Not even a question in my mind. This will be getting made.
Link to full recipe in the description, as always.
Looks delicious 😋
looks yummy. you are the santana of the bruleed banana
I tried substituting 2oz of Nutella instead of the melted chocolate (because bananas and Nutella are awesome together) and it works quite well.
Chef John was trying to open a portal to Heaven with this recipe
Sorry to say this but the viewing of this video reminded me of a dessert we once had in the Army messhall, way back when, while serving overseas.
Just one word, Chef John: YUM!
Oh Chef, oh John, what hae you done !? This will melt down the internet.......I'm into it ! 👍😊
Chef John sure is bananas for this recipe!
Best of both worlds!
Joe from Germany
i literally have a bunch of bananas in my kitchen rn, this is a sign

Wow nice creative recipe
Good alternative to the brûlée might be Adam Ragusea's "make burned caramel and pour it on" approach! This looks so good...
@@shaunhall284I love and appreciate this reference!
Uh hoh, now that sounds like a challenge
You are, after all, the Howard Stern of whether your banana gets burned. I giggled like an 8 year old.
Fantastic. Other than the burnt sugar in the walnuts, but that's easily remedied.
I'm thinking more along the lines of finishing with butter and brown sugar. For kind of a banana is foster effect.
@@shaunhall284 That's why I said to give it the effect. Not to straight up make it into it.
It’s my birthday this weekend. I will make this for me🎉
Been looking for this 😊
I just love your recipes.❤
I have some nanas well ripe waiting for me to use this looks awesome !
Are your plates Denny? I’m trying this today. I love all your recipes 😊
Holy Sh*t! This is amazing, Chef!
Oh my yummy!!! ❤
This would work well with pecan nuts too😊
Made this 3 weeks ago.
Making it again tonight, only substitute is Aussie pecans...😊
I use a handheld immersion blender to prep bananas.
I'm surprised that you didn't add cayenne to the batter. That would have been interesting with the chocolate and sweet banana.
@@shaunhall284 challenged to find improvements to their culinary skills, maybe. It's well known that sweet/spicy and chocolate/spicy are good combinations.

Banana Bread Brownies ?
Why Yes, Yes Please.....
May I have another ?
New skill unlocked: banana brûlée.
Awesome idea.
Browned butter in this would be god tier 🤌
7:52 … so let me go ahead and serve this up [to myself] …😻
BTW anyone know how to make crumbly spicy hot praline to sprinkle on sweet puddings?
This beat is B A N A N A S
Beeb ayeeee in ayeee in ayeeee essss....
😊I completely agree with you😋🍌🍫
Would one more egg make it a little heavier and more like brownies?
First time i failed when following your video, Sir. Could please tell me what i might have done wrong? My batter has risen in the oven, sort of like cake? Thank you, Chef! It was still tasty! 😅
Interesting!!!!
Yum! But I would probably just add turbinado sugar to the banana before it's baked.
You can see that he has poked before and it didn't pass the test so back in the oven it went, that's cooking! That banana brûlée was a bit too daring after all that work I'd say.
@@shaunhall284 Not at all, he shows his mistakes
You can just squeeze the banana before you open it and it will be soft so you don’t have to cut it.
Top secret: best pieces are corner pieces...shhhh don't tell anyone!!
ANY chance this could work with gluten-free flour??? Praying the answer is yes... this recipe looks like the best thing since, um, sliced bread!
What if the banana is sugared before baking?
At 6:00 your banana brownies are not amused.
Oooo I should make this soon.
I peel my bananas and put them in a bag in the freezer. When I pull them out, they thaw into that same moosh. Very little effort required. :)
you could probably pull it 5 minutes early from the oven, add the sugar on top and put it back in to finish baking? though that wouldn't quite "brulee" it...
this might be the only recipe ill ever make, except for the creme bruleeing [part ofc
try the creme bruleeing part! It's fun, and the worst thing that happens is you burn the bananas a bit and start over.
Happy Tuesday Chef John,
Look at you rappin.
"Mixin and a mashin smooshin and smashin"

lol IKR@@shaunhall284
YUMMY 😊😊😊😊
I completely agree with you 😊
Add sugar to the sliced bananas and bake the whole thing together 😊
His oven is always so clean. Drives me crazy. Lol
Mmmmm
I would actually do the opposite and brulee when serving
@@shaunhall284 yes I would. And yo momma would love it!
Although there's some chocolate in it, this looks like a blondie. I wonder if you could make it a blondie and brown the butter.
your key banana bread ingredient MURDERED ME!!!!
Hi very smart/clever idea,Delicius Lovely Flavour I Like much too me Panos Thanksgiving ❤❤🇬🇷👍
You are the bandana head of your banana bread.
I don’t have a blow torch so I’ll probably make the bread without the bananas 👩🏽🍳
❤🍌so got to try this recipe and let you know. 👊🖐️
these look busting for real for real
dumb question, why all purpose flour + the other 2 things & not self-rising? is there a spicific reason or personal preferance or something or what?
Most people don't have SRF on hand, or understand how to use it.
My favorite banana bread recipe uses SRF.
@@jakematic oh ok ty vm

No ooold tappa-tappa before the oven?
Any reason not to add cocoa powder?
experimentally did this with about 1/4 cup cocoa powder instead of the dark chocolate, works fine.
@@youmukonpaku3168 noted! I might try doing both whenever I get around to making this
Why not use the hand mixer to mash the bananas?
Why do you ask? @@shaunhall284
The bananas on top are NOT optional.
If you want some kind of accurate measurement, just use scales...
He had to do something on top-the pattern on the bananas looked like the nuclear symbol.
@@shaunhall284 I was wondering about that and your comment showed me, thanks!
@@shaunhall284 Back at you, have a great day! 😀
What happened to "The Ole Tapa-tapa"?
the end result looks not so great but i trust you
Anything with full size choc chips?
I.M.O. shouldn't be chilled.
What would be the worst thing that could happen if I didn’t add the egg?
Vegan? Allergic? No refrigerator? Use an egg substitute, aquafaba, flax seeds & water, or other, it would not hold together well.😊
Total destruction of mankind
@@shaunhall284 someone got out of bed on the wrong side this morning
I want the burned one!
