- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 2 ripe bananas, mashed (about 2/3 cup)

Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 9x13-inch baking dish with parchment paper and spray it with nonstick cooking spray.
- In a large bowl, using a hand mixer, blend the melted butter and brown sugar together until smooth.

- Add the eggs one at a time, mixing on low until fully incorporated. Scrape down the sides of the bowl for even mixing.

- Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and spread it evenly. Bake for 35-40 minutes, until the edges turn golden brown and the center is set.
- Once baked, allow the bars to cool in the pan for about 15 minutes before cutting into squares and serving.
