Hope you’ve watched my previous upload on the Banana Bread – that recipe was Banana Bread with spices and nuts. This time round it’s the chocolate version!

▶Chocolate Banana Bread◀
Yield: 2 x mid-sized pound cake pans (15cm x 7cm x 6cm, somewhere around 700ml in volume)
Bananas 280g (Ripe bananas pls!)
Butter 72g
Grapeseed Oil 16g
Light Brown Sugar 130g (can use white sugar but light brown sugar recommended)
Whole Egg 90g
Vanilla Extract a few drops
All purpose flour 155g
Cocoa Powder 16g
Baking soda 3g
Salt a pinch
Dark Couverture Chocolate 120g (80g melted, 40g unmelted)
① Mash the bananas.
② In a bowl add the banana, melted butter, oil, sugar, egg, vanilla extract and whisk.
③ Sift in the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, salt.
④ Add in the melted couverture chocolate followed by unmelted couverture chocolate.
⑤ (pre-heat 160℃) 160℃ for 40~50mins. You MUST adjust baking temp/time due to the difference in the pan size.
⑥ Personally, I prefer wrapping the banana bread in cling film and storing at room temp to serve the next day for optimal tenderness.
▶Baking time / temp◀
Everyone uses different sized pans – so adjust baking time & temperature. I’ve explained in the video on “how to check” if your banana bread is baked well. My advice is to stick to 160℃ and adjust the time first – if it takes too long to bake even after extending the time, than raise the temp by 10~15℃. (I know my suggested baking temperature is lower compared to a lot of those recipes out there – I prefer baking at lower temp for longer)
▶Quickly ripening bananas◀
① Put banana into a paper bag with an apple inside. Check back after half a day and leave it longer if not ripe enough.
② Another super quick way would be to bake unpeeled bananas at 150℃ (pre-heat 150℃) for 15~30mins. The banana will turn black but that’s ok.
▶How to store / Shelf life◀
Air-tight container for 3 days at room temp. It’s possible to store in the freezer up to 2wks.
