A Gluten Free Brownie that doesn’t have that gritty mouth feel, or chew as if it is full of sawdust is not an easy thing to make. This recipe uses mashed banana and applesauce to keep it moist and cakey. This is a great recipe for a pan of brownies that has a little healthy and not too much sweet. So feel free to send to your tots events or just make a pan and feel good about what you’re feeding your family.
