Guiltless Brownies Recipe

3 tbsp Unsweetened cocoa powder
1/4 cup Vegetable oil
2 Very ripe bananas
1/2 cup Sugar
2 large Eggs
1 cup Whole-wheat flour
1/2 cup Chopped nuts

Preheat oven to 350 F.

Combine cocoa, oil and bananas in a food processor or blender. Puree
until smooth. Combine sugar, eggs, flour and banana mixture in a
mixing bowl. Beat until blended, then stir in the nuts.

Pour the batter into a lightly oiled 9 x 13 inch baking pan and bake
for 15-20 minutes or until done. Toothpick inserted into center
should come out clean. (My suggestion - line baking pan with waxed
paper and spray with non-stick vegetable spray.) Cut into 2 1/4 inch
squares when cool.
