Ingredients
 
 

  • 290 g Banana as ripe as possible
  • 75 ml Vegetable oil
  • 180 g Soft light brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon Baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon Baking powder
  • 195 g Plain white flour
  • 250 g Chocolate chopped, I use a sweet dark chocolate
  • 1 Banana for decoration on top (optional)

Instructions
 

  • Pre-heat your oven to 180°C/ 356°F. Grease a rectangular baking tin with a small amount of butter.
  • Smash your bananas up as much as you can, forming a banana paste. You could use a fork for this, or an easier option is to just use a food processor (it makes this way quicker). Add the oil, sugar, baking soda + baking powder and flour to the bowl, in that order. Mix together between each ingredient addition. Add ¾ of your chocolate and combine.
  • Pout your banana bread mixture into you greased loaf tin. Cut your whole banana in half and place on top of the mixture, seed side up. Scatter the rest of the chocolate on top. Bake the banana bread for 50 minutes, or until a fork comes out of the middle clean.
  • Enjoy your banana bread warm or cold. Drizzle with melted chocolate or peanut butter... ENJOY!
