Preparation

How to prepare Chocolate Banana Bread

To prepare the chocolate banana bread, peel the bananas 1 and break them into a large bowl 2, then mash them with a fork 3.

When you have a creamy puree 4, add the eggs 5 and peanut butter 6.

Add the salt 7, brown sugar 8, and cinnamon 9.

Mix with a whisk 10 until you get a homogeneous mixture 11. At this point, sift the flour into the bowl 12.

Sift the cocoa 13 and baking powder 14 as well, then mix everything thoroughly 15.

You will get a thick batter 16, so dilute it with a bit of milk if needed 17 18.

Finally, add the chocolate chips 19 and incorporate them uniformly into the mixture 20. Pour the batter into a loaf pan lined with parchment paper 21.

Bake in a preheated static oven at 356°F for about 30 minutes 22, always checking the cooking with a toothpick before removing from the oven. Once cooked, let the banana bread cool in the pan 23, then unmold it 34.

Melt the milk chocolate in the microwave or in a bain-marie and let it drizzle over the surface of the banana bread 25, then garnish with more chocolate chips. Your chocolate banana bread is ready to be enjoyed 27!
