Sweet flavours of ripe bananas with chocolate! A bread with rich chocolate flavour combined with sweetness and moistness of bananas. This Chocolate Banana Loaf Cake is a game changer.
I have always loved bananas and chocolate together. This Chocolate Banana Loaf cake or bread is a great accompaniment to your cup of coffee or even breakfast. This banana bread is irresistibly moist and intensely chocolatey with the texture of a brownie. It absolutely melts in your mouth.
Tips to make the perfect Chocolate Banana Bread –
- Use ripe bananas – Ripe bananas give the great flavour and moistness to the cake. See how to ripen bananas below.
- Eggs at room temperature – Room temperature eggs fluff up better than cold eggs.
- Use Dutch process Cocoa powder for more moist and darker bread.
- Good quality Choco chips
How to Ripen Bananas:
- Quick Oven Method:Β If your bananas are a little green and you want them to ripen quick, place bananas on a baking sheet and bake at 120ΛC for 15 to 20 minutes depending on the initial ripeness of the bananas.
- 24 Hour Counter Method:Β If you are willing to wait 1 day, you can place the bunch of bananas (without separating them) in a paper bag, cover and leave at room temperature. Bananas emitΒ ethylene which causes ripening.
Storing
Store at room temperature in an airtight container for upto 3 days. Should last for up to 7 days in a refrigerator. You can also freeze the cake wrapped well and in an airtight container for about 2 months.
