Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups banana mashed
- 1 egg
- ½ cup coconut oil or vegetable oil, melted
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup flour all purpose or gluten free flour
- ¾ cup light brown sugar or coconut sugar
- ½ cup cocoa powder
- 1 tsp baking soda
- pinch salt optional, sea salt
- ¾ cup dark chocolate chips
Instructions
- First, preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a bread loaf pan with parchment paper.
- In a mixing bowl, add mashed bananas, egg, melted coconut oil and vanilla. Stir to combine.
- Then, add in flour, brown sugar, cocoa powder, baking soda and sea salt. Stir to combine.
- Fold in chocolate chips.
- Transfer batter to the lined loaf pan. Spread into an even layer.
- Bake for 45 to 55 minutes, until toothpick inserted comes out with only moist crumbs.
- Finally, remove from oven. Allow bread to fully cool before slicing.
Notes
- Use ripe bananas for the best results.
- Feel free to replace melted coconut oil with vegetable oil or melted butter.
- Both regular all purpose flour and gluten free 1 to 1 flour can be used.
- Both light brown sugar and coconut sugar work well. I actually prefer the version with coconut sugar.
- The banana bread batter will be somewhat thick.
- Do not bake too long. Once a toothpick inserted comes out with only moist crumbs, remove from oven.
- Allow bread to fully cool before slicing.
- Store covered at room temperature for up to 4 days.
