Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Line an 8-inch (20 cm) loaf pan with parchment paper.

Preparing the batter:

  • Add the bananas to a large mixing bowl and mash well until it forms a thick paste. Add the rest of the wet ingredients and mix with the mashed banana until thoroughly combined.
  • Add all of the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Some lumps in the batter are fine, as long as they aren't lumps of flour or cocoa powder.
  • Pour the batter into your prepared loaf pan and smooth the top of the batter with a spoon. Sprinkle the extra chocolate chips on top.

Baking the banana bread:

  • Bake the banana bread for around 1 hour (this will depend on how hot your oven runs). If you insert a toothpick in the centre, there shouldn't be any wet batter, though some crumbs or melted chocolate are fine.
  • Allow the bread to cool in the tin for 10 minutes then cool on a wire rack.
  • Slice the banana bread and enjoy! The banana bread is wonderful by itself, with some vegan butter, dairy free yogurt or even with ice cream!
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for 3 days, in the fridge for 5 days or in the freezer for up to 1 month. However, it usually doesn't last that long!

Notes

  1. To make vegan gluten-free banana bread, substitute the flour with ¾ cup (120g) gluten-free all-purpose flour and 1 ¼ cups (125g) almond flour (blanched almond meal).
