Ingredients

  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • ½ cup vegetable oil
  • cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 2 overripe bananas
  • 2 large eggs
  • 7 tablespoons chocolate almond milk see notes for substitutions
  • 1 teaspoon white vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup chocolate chips plus a few more for the top

Instructions

  • Step 1: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease your loaf pan with cooking spray or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
  • Step 2: In a large mixing bowl, mash the overripe bananas with a fork until smooth. Add the granulated sugar and vegetable oil, mixing until well combined.
  • Step 3: Add the eggs, chocolate almond milk, and white vinegar to the banana mixture. Whisk until everything is well blended and smooth.
  • Step 4: In a separate bowl, whisk together the cocoa powder, baking soda, salt, and flour. This will ensure that the dry ingredients are evenly distributed.
  • Step 5: Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture using a spatula. Be careful not to overmix; it’s okay if there are a few lumps.
  • Step 6: Gently fold in the chocolate chips, reserving a handful to sprinkle on top of the batter before baking.
  • Step 7: Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula. Sprinkle the reserved chocolate chips on top for an extra chocolatey touch.
  • Step 8: Place the loaf pan in the preheated oven and bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Step 9: Once baked, remove the banana bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then, transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
