Healthier creme egg brownies, made with ripe bananas and mini creme eggs. 126 calories per serving.
Easter baking is my favourite, there’s something about easter chocolate that makes baking that but more fun and indulgent!
Based on my popular Oreo Brownie Recipe, I’ve adapted it to make a fun easter treat! While they’re definitely some more indulgent bakes on my site, sometimes I like to make healthier versions by swapping out the usual ingredients for lighter alternatives. I like using my left over bananas in my baking a lot as they massively reduce calories in recipe and can be used instead of some of the fats like butter in a recipe. I also used mini creme eggs instead of the full size, I actually think they look quite cute!
Let me know if you give these a try, I would love to hear your feedback! Happy Easter!
