This recipe delivers a rich, moist loaf that tastes like a decadent brownie, perfect for using up overripe bananas. It is easy to make and satisfies sweet cravings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup mashed very ripe bananas (about 3 medium)
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup milk or buttermilk
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips, divided

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9×5 inch loaf pan.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
  3. In a separate medium bowl, mix the mashed bananas, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract until combined.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Mix gently until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Stir in 1/2 cup of the chocolate chips.
  6. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan. Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of chocolate chips over the top.
  7. Bake for 55 to 65 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean or with moist crumbs attached.
  8. Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes before carefully turning it out onto a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • Use very ripe, spotty bananas for the best flavor and moisture in this quick bread.
  • For an extra fudgy texture, use a mix of milk chocolate and dark chocolate chips.
  • If the top begins to brown too quickly during baking, loosely tent the loaf with aluminum foil for the remaining cook time.
