Ingredients

The following ingredients have 10 Servings
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup cocoa powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 3 large brown bananas, mashed  (about 1 1/2 cups)
  • 1/4 cup canola or vegetable oil
  • 3/4 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/4 cup sour cream
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips, divided

Instruction

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Generously grease a 9-by-5-inch loaf pan with nonstick cooking spray and set aside.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder and salt.
  • In a large bowl, combine the bananas and oil and stir until combined. Add  the brown sugar, egg, sour cream and vanilla and stir until smooth.
  • Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, and stir gently until just combined. Don’t overmix. Stir in 3/4 cup of the chocolate chips.
  • Pour batter into prepared pan. Sprinkle the remaining 1/4 cup of chocolate chips over the top of the bread. Bake for 50-65 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the bread comes out clean. (You may still have some chocolate on your toothpick from the chocolate chips).
  • Remove the pan from the oven and set on a wire cooling rack. Allow bread cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes before turning onto the wire rack to cool completely.
