Chocolate & Banana Loaf

Wednesday, 7 March 2018

I have been making banana loaf for years now . It is a firm favourite in our house and the girls absolutely love it . I decided to make some over the half term and seeing as my loaf doesn’t contain any sugar or sweetener , it is perfect for little ones , so baby Nila got to taste test mama’s famous banana bread.

Super simple to make and not many ingredients either! You will need

1 egg
120g Plain flour
2 sachets of baking powder/10g
Dr Oetker milk chocolate chunks
a little butter to grease the loaf tin
3 ripen bananas- the ripest you can find, the sweeter the tase)

Firstly mash the heck out of the banana and add the egg. Mix well. Mix the baking powder in with the flour and slowly start adding that to the banana and egg mixture in small amounts until it all is completely mixed together.

Last but not least add your chocolate chunks- try not to eat them all! They are pretty delicious :) . Once everything is mixed in , grease your loaf tin , pour the mixture in and place in your oven gas mark 4/ 180c for 40 minutes . Super simple and so easy for the little ones to help .

We have never added chocolate before so this was definitely a yummy treat and the girls absolutely loved it! especially Nila, she couldn’t get enough!

Let me know if you try making our chocolate chip Banana loaf . I hope you enjoy it as much as we all do :)

Banana bread is our absolute favourite and I make it quite often. If I'm feeling like a sweeter treat I throw in some chocolate!

We love banana bread and I've never thought to add in chocolate, definitely trying this!

This looks and sounds delicious, I can't believe it doesn't have any added sugar or sweetner. My son loves to bake and we have lots of over ripe bananas so we will definitely give it a try this weekend. Thanks for sharing. x
