Rich Double Chocolate Chip Banana Bread (High Fiber!)
Report
Every bite of this Double Chocolate Chip Banana Bread tastes just like a fudgy brownie. It’s the ultimate chocolatey snack—and you’d never know it’s lightened up or high in fiber (5g per slice!)

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a 8.5x4.5-inch bread pan with cooking spray and line with parchment paper.
- To a large bowl, add the bananas and mash with a fork. Add the rest of the wet ingredients (eggs through vanilla) and whisk well to combine.
- To a separate medium size bowl, add all the dry ingredients (flour through salt); whisk to combine.
- Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and stir just until the dry ingredients are mixed in. You can also use a hand mixer for this.
- Add the chocolate chips and fold into the batter I like to save a few for topping!)
- Pour batter into the bread pan and sprinkle with any remaining or extra chocolate chips.
- Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out mostly clean (a toothpick inserted in the center should still be slightly gooey for a more moist texture!)
- Let cool completely. Sprinkle with a little flake salt if desired then slice and enjoy!
Notes
- This bread is great warm and fresh out of the oven but also insanely delicious after chilling in the fridge overnight. I love serving this bread up chilled with some greek yogurt, nut butter and berries!

- To store: place leftover banana bread in a covered airtight container or cover with plastic wrap to prevent it from drying out. Store at room temperature for 1-2 days or in the fridge for up to a week.
- To freeze: let banana bread cool completely. Cut into slices then wrap each slice in parchment paper or plastic wrap to keep them from sticking together and throw in a large ziploc bag. Alternatively, you can lay all the slices out on a sheet pan or plate (that will fit in your freezer) so they're not touching, freeze, then once they are re frozen, throw bread slices in a large ziploc bag. Freeze for 3-4 months.
- Dutch cocoa: The dutch black cocoa powder really brings an intense chocolate flavor to the bread. I recommend using it if you have it, but if you need to replace it, you can do so with more dark cocoa powder.
