Healthy brownies

So I've been really trying to make some of the recipes I've pinned {because really after all - that's the point}.
This week I tried this brownie recipe - lower fat, lower sugar, etc than most brownie recipes - AND high protein? Sounds too good to be true right?
Well it is - sort of. They don't taste exactly like decadent brownies that you would make from a box or buy from a store. You can definitely tell that they have bananas in them. But I like chocolate and bananas, so it wasn't a bad thing. And the batter is really too thick for a blender, I had to add at least a cup of water to the blender to get it to blend {but then these ended up being nice and moist and almost fudgy}.
The batter was delicious {I ended up eating a bunch a little while I was mixing}. They are definitely sweet enough even though I decreased the agave syrup down to a 1/4 cup.

Overall - I like these. They are definitely a nice "treat" when you are trying to eat healthier.
