Scale
  • 3 ripe bananas, mashed
  • 1/2 cup melted butter
  • 1 cup sugar

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup cocoa powder

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×5 inch loaf pan.
  2. Mash the ripe bananas with a fork until smooth.
  3. Pour the melted butter into the mashed bananas and mix together.
  4. Stir in the sugar, beaten egg, and vanilla extract until well blended.
  5. Sprinkle in the baking soda and salt, mixing well.
  6. Add all-purpose flour and cocoa powder to the mixture, stirring until just combined.
  7. If using, gently fold in the chocolate chips.

Notes

Make sure your bananas are ripe for maximum sweetness. Substitute cocoa powder with extra flour if necessary, but you’ll lose the chocolate flavor.
