Ingredients
  

  • 1¼ cups (150g) all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup (42g) unsweetened cocoa powder (I used Dutch-processed)
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¾ cup (125g) chocolate chips
  • 1½ cups (345g) pureed bananas ( about 4 medium or 3 large bananas)
  • ½ cup (114g) unsalted butter melted
  • ¾ cup (150g) granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease a 9-inch loaf pan with non-stick spray. Set it aside.
  • Whisk flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl until well combined.
  • Add chocolate chips to the flour mixture and fold in gently.
  • Puree the ripe bananas using an immersion blender or blender and transfer the puree to a large mixing bowl.
  • Add melted butter, sugar, and vanilla to the bowl of banana puree. Whisk well until everything is well combined.
  • Add dry ingredients to the wet and mix until just combined. Do not overmix.
  • Transfer the batter to the prepared loaf pan and spread it evenly. Top the batter with more chocolate chips.
  • Bake the cake in the preheated oven for 45-55 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Every oven is different, so keep an eye on the cake after 45 minutes of baking. I baked the cake for 55 minutes.
  • Remove the cake and transfer the pan to the wire rack. Allow the double chocolate banana bread to cool completely in the pan before removing and slicing.

Storing Suggestions

  • Cover and store the double chocolate banana bread at room temperature for 3 days. It stays moist in the fridge for up to a week.

Notes

  1. Measuring The Ingredients: Measure the ingredients correctly. If you have a kitchen scale, use it to weigh the ingredients for the best result.
  2. Bananas: Make sure to puree the bananas instead of mashing them. Banana puree is the key to moist double chocolate banana bread. Because I used banana puree, there is no need to add sour cream or milk.
  3. Cocoa Powder: I used Dutch-processed cocoa powder, which I highly recommend, but you can also use natural cocoa powder.
  4. Chocolate Chips: Adding chocolate chips is essential; do not skip it. They add sweetness and make the bread extra chocolatey. You can either add semi-sweet or dark chocolate chips.
  5. Mixing The Batter: Do not overmix the cake batter; overmixing will make the cake denser.
  6. Baking: Keep an eye on the bread after 45 minutes of baking. Overbaking will make the double chocolate banana bread dry and crumbly. At the same time, under-baking will cause the bread to sink in the middle and be soggy at the bottom.
