I'm really pleased with this recipe, and so are my family.
I'm ecstatic to make a treat that's actually good for them, and it tastes great. Woo hoo!
It is low in grains, high in fruit and vege's, and no added sugar (apart from the sugar in the dark chocolate used in the icing).

1/2 cup buckwheat flour

3 Tablespoons butter, melted
1 egg, beaten
1 banana, mashed
1/2 cup blackcurrants (mine are frozen)
1 teaspoon baking soda
Icing

3 Tablespoons cream

2. Add the next 8 ingredients, mix well and cover. Leave for 2 - 24 hours.

Line a 20x20cm cake tin with baking paper.

Spoon the icing over the brownie and spread with a knife.
