Double Chocolate Banana Bread Recipe
This double chocolate banana bread recipe is a rich, chocolatey version of the classic banana bread. It has a deep dark chocolate flavor that makes it taste a little bit like chocolate cake but with a yummy addition of banana flavor. This vegan version is made with simple ingredients you can find at any grocery store.
Equipment
- large mixing bowl
- loaf pan
- potato masher
Ingredients
Dry Ingredients
- 1 cup white whole wheat flour 130 g
- ½ cup cacao powder
- ½ cup coconut sugar
- 2 tablespoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon espresso powder
- ¼ teaspoon sea salt
Wet Ingredients
- 2 flax eggs 2 tablespoon ground flax + 6 tablespoon water
- 3-4 ripe bananas 1.5 cups mashed
- ⅓ cup maple syrup
- ¼ cup vegan yogurt
- ½ cup coconut oil
- 1-2 teaspoon vanilla extract
To fold in
- 1 cup vegan chocolate chips ¾ cup to fold in the loaf, ¼ cup sprinkled on top of the loaf
Instructions
- Start by peeling and mashing the ripe bananas. Then add all the rest of the wet ingredients.
- Add the dry ingredients to the wet and mix those together. After the batter has formed, fold in the chocolate chips.
- Grease a loaf pan with oil and line it with parchment paper. Then pour the batter into the pan and bake the bread for 55-60 minutes at 350*F/ 175*C.
- Remove the loaf from the oven, allow it to cool, then slice it and enjoy! I love adding vegan butter and flakey salt or melted dark chocolate on top.
