How To Make Double Chocolate Banana Bread

Making this amazing chocolate banana bread is as easy as it gets.  It’s a one-bowl recipe, where everything gets dumped in one bowl and mixed.  First mash the bananas with a fork in a bowl and add the liquid ingredients: oil, eggs and vanilla. Next, add the dry ingredients – flour, cocoa powder, baking powder and baking soda – and mix.  Finally, add the chocolate chips and mix. Pour the batter in a greased loaf pan, sprinkle extra chocolate chips on top and bake in pre-heated 350F over for 50 minutes.  That’s it! Anyone can make this chocolate banana bread, it’s a perfect recipe for beginning bakers!  If you like chocolate banana bread, also check out my other chocolate chip banana bread recipe – that one has white batter with the brown chocolate chips throughout!
