  • ⅓ cups Brown Sugar
  • 1 Tablespoon Butter
  • _____
  • FOR THE BARS:
  • 2 cups All-purpose Flour
  • ¼ cups Cornstarch
  • ¾ teaspoons Baking Soda
  • ½ teaspoons Baking Powder

Preparation

Preheat oven to 400ºF.

Combine the ingredients for the roasted bananas in a bowl. Once mixed, transfer to a baking dish. Bake at 400°F for 35 minutes, stirring after 17 minutes. Cool and set aside.

For the bars, combine flour, corn starch, soda, and baking powder in a medium bowl. Combine sugar and butter into another bowl. Add eggs and stir until creamy.

Combine banana mixture, buttermilk, and vanilla in another medium bowl. Add the banana mixture and sugar mixture into the flour mix. Stir well.

Pour batter into a 9 by 13 pan and bake for 20 minutes. Let cool.

For the frosting, melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat; cook 4 minutes or until lightly browned.

In a medium bowl, stir sugar, cream cheese, vanilla and cooled browned butter. Stir until smooth.

Once bars are completely cooled, frost and sprinkle with pecans.
