Even snacks should be properly combined – and that’s where this winner of a brownie recipe comes in! This brownie, as opposed to its potato-starch-and-sugar-filled friends, will actually keep you full instead of wanting to finish off the pan. It’s got starch from the banana and protein, fiber and fat from the nut butter. Adding coconut flakes and cacao nibs ups the fiber content even more.
