Banana Bread Bars with Brown Butter Frosting

Gluten-free

From The Girl Who Ate Everything

1 ½ cup sugar

1 ½ cup greek yogurt

½ cup butter, softened

2 eggs

3-4 ripe bananas, mashed

2 tsp vanilla extract

2 cup Better Batter

1 tsp baking soda

¾ tsp salt

½ cup chopped walnuts (optional)

Brown Butter Frosting:

½ cup butter

4 cup powdered sugar

1 ½ tsp vanilla extract

3 tbl milk

Heat oven to 375F. Line 15x10-inch jelly roll pan with parchment paper.

In a large bowl, beat together sugar, greek yogurt, butter, and eggs until creamy. Blend in bananas and vanilla extract. Add Better Batter, baking soda, salt, and blend for 1 minute. Stir in walnuts, if desired.

Spread batter evenly into pan. Bake 20 to 25 minutes or until golden brown.

Meanwhile, for frosting, heat butter in a large saucepan over medium heat until boiling. Let the butter turn a delicate brown and remove from heat immediately.

Add powdered sugar, vanilla extract and milk. Whisk together until smooth (it should be thicker than a glaze but thinner than frosting). Using a spatula, spread the brown butter frosting over the warm bars (the frosting will be easier to spread while the bars are still warm).

Yield: 2 dozen large bars

This recipe turned out very good.  Moist, soft, chewy.
