These Banana Bread Brownies combine the moist, tender texture of banana bread with the rich, fudgy consistency of brownies. Made with ripe bananas, sour cream, and butter, these bars are incredibly soft and flavorful. The optional brown butter glaze adds a nutty, caramel-like sweetness that makes them even more irresistible. Perfect for dessert, a snack, or even a sweet breakfast treat!
