Preheat oven to 350F degrees. Lightly grease an 8-inch square baking pan with coconut oil and line with parchment paper (used to lift the brownies from the pan). Set pan aside.
In a medium mixing bowl, mash the bananas, almond butter, coconut oil, almond milk, sugar and salt with a fork until batter is mostly smooth with a few small lumps.
Fold in the flour, oats, and baking powder with a spatula, just until combined.
Pour half the batter into the prepared pan and smooth into an even layer.
Fold the cocoa powder and chocolate chips into the remaining batter, just until combined. Pour the chocolate mixture over the plain banana batter and gently smooth into even layer.
Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until set and golden brown around the edges and a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean.
Allow pan to cool completely on wire rack before cutting into 16 squares.
Store any remaining brownies in an airtight container.
