- 1 ½ cups (225g) plain flour
- 4 tablespoons dark unsweetened cocoa powder sifted
- 1 ½ cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon or more to taste
- ¼ teaspoon nutmeg

- Add the oil to the banana and when combined, mix in the eggs and sugar.
- In another bowl, mix together the flour, cocoa powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and baking soda.
